Long-term scenarios for the transformation of the energy system

Other

In the project "Long-term scenarios for the transformation of the energy system in Germany", scenarios for the future development of the energy system are being modelled on behalf of the Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Energy, with which the energy and climate policy goals can be achieved. The modelling covers the entire energy system, i.e. overarching the generation of electricity, heat and hydrogen as well as the demand for energy in the industry, transport, buildings and appliances sectors. The energy infrastructures (electricity and gases) are also modelled. The focus of the analysis is not the development of a single "lead scenario", but the investigation of different scenario worlds in order to gain insights into the advantages and disadvantages of alternative paths for the transformation of the energy system through the comparative analyses.
