Impact analysis of COVID-19 responses on energy grid dynamics in Europe

Annette Werth et al.

Summary: The study found that during the COVID-19 pandemic, most European countries experienced a significant decrease in electricity generation, with a notable drop in energy consumption. Additionally, there was an increase in renewable energy generation, as well as fossil gas in some countries. The European grid helped balance these changes by increasing both energy exports and imports, with some countries transitioning from net exporters to net importers.
