The goal of Heat Roadmap Europe 4 (HRE4) is to develop low-carbon heating and cooling strategies, called Heat Roadmaps, by quantifying and implementing changes at the national level for 14 EU Member States, which together account for approximately 85-90% of total heating and cooling in Europe. Specifically, the project aims to: Build evidence that supports decarbonization of the heating and cooling sector...

Scenarios for a sustainable energy system in the Åland Islands in 2030

Åland Islands

Finland

100% Renewable Energy

Authors:

Michael Child, Alexander Nordling, Christian Breyer

Link to Article A fully sustainable energy system for the Åland islands is possible by 2030 based on the assumptions in this study. Several scenarios were constructed for the future energy system based on various combinations of domestic production of wind and solar photovoltaic power, expanded domestic energy storage solutions, electrified transport, and strategic energy carrier trade. Hourly analysis...

The Impacts of High V2G Participation in a 100% Renewable Åland Energy System

Åland Islands

Finland

100% Renewable Energy

Storage Solutions

Vehicle-To-Grid

Authors:

Michael Child, Alexander Nordling, Christian Breyer

Link to Article A 100% renewable energy (RE) scenario featuring high participation in vehicle-to-grid (V2G) services was developed for the Åland islands for 2030 using the EnergyPLAN modelling tool. Hourly data was analysed to determine the roles of various energy storage solutions, notably V2G connections that extended into electric boat batteries. Two weeks of interest (max/min RE) generation were...
