Open model -based analysis of a 100% renewable and sector-coupled energy system?The case of Germany in 2050

Md Nasimul Islam Maruf

Summary: This paper outlines a method for analyzing the 100% renewable-based and sector-coupled energy system's feasibility in Germany, showing the dependency of investment capacities and component costs on parametric variations and validating the model results through comparison with recent studies. It concludes by demonstrating the tool's ability to analyze different energy systems in the EU context.

Integrated Multidimensional Sustainability Assessment of Energy System Transformation Pathways

Tobias Naegler et al.

Summary: The study introduces an integrated and interdisciplinary approach for evaluating the sustainability of energy system transformation pathways. Findings show that different transformation strategies in environmental and macroeconomic impacts have small differences, and the transition among societal segments and climate impact minimization are identified as the most important stakeholder preferences.

Transition pathway towards 100% renewable energy across the sectors of power, heat, transport, and desalination for the Philippines

Ashish Gulagi et al.

Summary: Transitioning towards sustainable energy systems using indigenous renewable resources is feasible for the Philippines, with the possibility of achieving a 100% fossil-free energy system by 2050. This transition could bring various socio-economic benefits while maintaining a cost structure comparable to that of 2015.

Setting Thresholds to Define Indifferences and Preferences in PROMETHEE for Life Cycle Sustainability Assessment of European Hydrogen Production

Christina Wulf et al.

Summary: The Life Cycle Sustainability Assessment (LCSA) is a reliable method for evaluation, with Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis (MCDA) helping to clarify results and PROMETHEE providing clear solutions. The comparison of newly-specified thresholds based on LCIA uncertainty with default thresholds is important for interpreting LCSA results.
