Energy Technology Policy Outlook Unit Mission
Support the development and assess the impact of energy technology innovation on the transition to a low carbon society, in support of the energy, transport, industrial and innovation policies of the EU.
Key activities
• Technology assessment (techno-socio-economics)
• Modelling of technologies, sectors and the energy system
• Reference technology databases
• Monitoring of technological innovation and of various sectors
Themes
Low-carbon technologies (CCS, wind, marine, geothermal, energy storage), energy intensive industry, e-mobility, critical materials, innovation capacities
Policies
Energy Technology, Research & Innovation, Industry, Transport, Eco-Innovation
The Workshop
6
Why flexibility as the ‘theme’
Future energy systems will be forced to become increasingly flexible in order to cope with the challenges of integrating higher shares of renewable energy sources
Policy makers need to consider issues such as the effects of intermittent energy sources on the reliability and adequacy of the energy system, the impacts of rules governing the curtailment or storage of energy, or how much backup dispatchable capacity may be required to guarantee that energy demand is safely met
How to address properly these issues in energy system models?
7
Goals of the Workshop: learn from each other
To gather (the) experts from modelling teams currently dealing with these problems from different perspectives, ranging from energy system-wide to detailed sectoral energy models
To openly share and compare modelling approaches and results
To identify gaps and potential solutions, preferably in a broadly consensual way
8
Expected outcomes
A JRC Technical report to be published in 2015:
• based on your contributions -abstracts and slides,
• with a summary of the discussions, &
• a set of methodological recommendations for modelling flexibility
( to be reviewed and commented by all )
A possible follow-up?
9
Organization of the workshop
Chatham house rules: free discussion!
• As informal as possible
• 30-minute long presentations
• Brief questions and answers during/after each presentation
• Broader discussions at the end of each session
• If time allows, additional presentations not foreseen in the agenda!
