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

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?

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

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?

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!
