New research paper published: Paving the way to carbon neutrality in the Greek power sector!
Our team has recently published our new scientific publication entitled “Bidirectional soft-linking of a Capacity Expansion Model with a Production Cost Model to evaluate the feasibility of transition pathways towards carbon neutrality in the power sector” at Elsevier’s Applied Energy Journal. This paper is co-authored by Nikos Kleanthis, Dr. Vassilis Stavrakas, and Prof. Dr. Alexandros Flamos, and is produced within the context of the EC-funded projects, IAM COMPACT and ENCLUDE. This article introduces a novel bidirectional soft-linking approach between two open-source energy models to generate long-term scenarios in the power sector and evaluate their feasibility, allowing for the optimisation of…

New paper: Are there preferable capacity combinations of renewables and storage?
Our new paper entitled “Are there preferable capacity combinations of renewables and storage? Exploratory quantifications along various technology deployment pathways” produced within the context of the Horizon 2020 Sustainable Energy Transitions Laboratory (SENTINEL) project is now published at Elsevier’s Energy Policy journal! The paper examines how do different configurations of renewable energy capacity perform in terms of pledged renewable penetration targets, how much storage does each configuration require, and what is the cost intensity of each renewable plus storage build-out. Through soft-linking our STREEM and AIM models, we perform exploratory analysis of all possible pathways towards the 2030 milestone horizon…

An Ex-Post Assessment of RES-E Support in Greece
o How is the performance of energy markets affected by the different support mechanisms both in the short- and the long-term? o How can a roadmap of least resistance for a policy measure to attain its goals be developed, without compromising, in parallel, the further development of electricity generation sources? Οur article entitled “An Ex-Post Assessment of RES-E Support in Greece by Investigating the Monetary Flows and the Causal Relationships in the Electricity Market”, now published in the Energies MDPI journal, sheds light on these critical questions. Find the full article here.
