  1. 1. Exploring the future low-carbon electricity system: impacts of nuclear power and demand patterns

    Author : Xiaoming Kan; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; net system cost; electricity supply mix; Low-carbon electricity system; variable renewable energy; nuclear power; electricity system cost; demand pattern; energy system modeling;

    Abstract : To achieve the climate goals set by the Paris Agreement, the global electricity system is expected to transition towards a low-carbon electricity system. The future low-carbon electricity system is uncertain regarding both generation and demand. READ MORE

  2. 2. Exploring the Transition to a Low-Carbon Electricity System — Using Agent-Based Modeling

    Author : Jinxi Yang; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; investment decisions; agent-based modeling; energy system modeling; open-source model; electricity market; low-carbon transition;

    Abstract : The ability to produce electricity has profoundly shaped human lives. Over time, the sources used for electricity generation have undergone several transitions. Currently, we are navigating a pivotal shift in the electricity system – decarbonization – a journey fraught with a myriad of challenges. READ MORE

  3. 3. From Sweden to the world: Analysis of future low-carbon electricity systems

    Author : Xiaoming Kan; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; super grid; energy system modeling; net system cost; renewable energy potential; low-carbon electricity system; nuclear power; demand pattern; electric cooling;

    Abstract : The increasing urgency of addressing climate change, along with the sustained cost declines in wind and solar power, has led to a rapid expansion in their deployment to decarbonize the electricity sector. In cost-optimal scenarios for future low-carbon electricity systems, wind and solar often serve as the cornerstone of electricity supply. READ MORE

  4. 4. Transition to a low-carbon electricity system — investment decisions under heterogeneity, uncertainty and financial feedback

    Author : Jinxi Yang; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; investment financing; electricity system transition; agent-based modelling; investment decisions;

    Abstract : A transition to a low-carbon electricity system will require a substantial increase in the investment rate in low-carbon technologies. This calls for a better understanding of investment decisions and their impact on the pace of the transition. READ MORE
