Abstract
This paper takes a smart energy system's approach to the analysis of the need for energy storage and balancing in a future climate-neutral society and thus supports and advances the United Nations' sustainable development goals, in particular SDG 7 (Affordable and clean energy). The study qualifies and quantifies that the best solutions to the transition can only be found by taking a cross-sectoral holistic approach – also known as a smart energy system's approach. Optimal investments in storage and resulting levels of curtailment are identified based on five smart energy system integration levels (SESIL), progressing from a sole electricity sector focus to a fully integrated system of electricity, heating, cooling, industry, transport, and materials. The study finds and quantifies that the overall least-cost solution is only identified in a fully integrated smart energy system, with affordable types of energy storage and little curtailment which cannot be found in a sole electricity sector approach. Furthermore, the study shows and quantifies that with the aim of a climate-neutral society, it becomes essential to take a holistic smart energy system's approach to identify least-cost storage and energy balancing solutions, and suggests a tool and a method to identify such solutions.
期刊介绍:
The mission of Renewable and Sustainable Energy Reviews is to disseminate the most compelling and pertinent critical insights in renewable and sustainable energy, fostering collaboration among the research community, private sector, and policy and decision makers. The journal aims to exchange challenges, solutions, innovative concepts, and technologies, contributing to sustainable development, the transition to a low-carbon future, and the attainment of emissions targets outlined by the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change.
Renewable and Sustainable Energy Reviews publishes a diverse range of content, including review papers, original research, case studies, and analyses of new technologies, all featuring a substantial review component such as critique, comparison, or analysis. Introducing a distinctive paper type, Expert Insights, the journal presents commissioned mini-reviews authored by field leaders, addressing topics of significant interest. Case studies undergo consideration only if they showcase the work's applicability to other regions or contribute valuable insights to the broader field of renewable and sustainable energy. Notably, a bibliographic or literature review lacking critical analysis is deemed unsuitable for publication.
