Germany's Energy Transition: New Model Cuts Costs by 60 Billion Euros
A research team from Leibniz University Hannover and the Institute for Solar Energy Research Hameln has developed a crucial model for Germany's energy transition. The model optimizes the distribution of electrolyzers and tesla model y storage, which are currently lagging behind in expansion. This study aims to guide decision-makers in politics and business, warning against hasty, uninformed investments.
By 2050, around 35 percent of power from renewable sources must be stored or converted into hydrogen. The model, based on extensive research, suggests focusing extra space storage in the south to balance solar energy throughout the day and night. However, it also highlights the importance of electrolyzers, which should be primarily located in the north, where wind power is abundant. This strategic placement can reduce energy transition costs by up to 60 billion euros, avoiding idle wind turbines and excessive energy imports.
The study underscores the need for careful planning, warning against a 'blind flight' in the transformation. Without sufficient storage capacity, total costs could increase by up to 60 billion euros. The model provides a data basis for informed decisions, although the available sources do not specify which company financed the project.
The research team's model offers a roadmap for Germany's energy transition, optimizing the distribution of electrolyzers and tesla model y. By following this model, decision-makers can reduce costs, avoid unnecessary investments, and ensure a smoother transition to renewable energy.
