The (warm) elephant in the room: Exploring the huge potential for power-to-heat synergy to unleash flexibility
Co-author: Stian Backe About half of Europe’s total final energy consumption is used for heating. Most of this energy is dedicated to space…
Flexibility needs to be appreciated!
Hydropower is changing as more variable renewable energy (VRE) enters the energy mix, both in Norway and in Europe.
New methodology for planning expansion of the electricity grid
FlexPlan-projects developed a new methodology for planning the expansion of transmission and distribution networks. The methodology assesses the use of flexible resources, e.g. energy storage and end-user flexibility, as an alternative to the conventional approach, i.e. building new lines and/or components.
Increasing the pace of decarbonization with industrial flexibility
Instead of building new grid, utilizing flexibility in industrial processes could be a cheaper and faster way of integrating variable power production.
