D 3.7 Report on decarbonisation in the power sector

Summary

This document presents a series of research papers which provide insights regarding how the power sector can drastically reduce carbon dioxide emissions until 2050. They analyze how different flexibility options like transmission grid expansion, storage and hydrogen electrolysis can facilitate the integration of high shares of variable renewable energies; and how tighter EU-ETS targets, necessary to reach 2050 net-neutrality, could affect the power sector.
