This paper reviews the classification schemes used for bottom-up energy system modelling
and proposes a novel one as re-elaboration of the previous schemes. Moreover, this paper …

Abstract The long-term Generation Expansion Planning (GEP) problem determines the

We analyze 36 years of global, hourly weather data (1980–2015) to quantify the covariability
of solar and wind resources as a function of time and location, over multi-decadal time …

Electrical energy storage could play an important role in decarbonizing the electricity sector
by offering a new, carbon-free source of operational flexibility, improving the utilization of …

Power systems are evolving to the networks with proliferated penetration of renewable
energy resources to leverage their environmental and economic advantages. However, due …

Flexibility is the ability of a power system to respond to changes in power demand and
generation. Integrating large shares of variable renewable energy sources, in particular …

Generation expansion planning consists of finding the optimal long-term plan for the
