Deutschland hat bei der Vorbereitung auf E-Mobilität Aufholbedarf und die Integration von Elektrofahrzeugen ins Verteilnetz steht vor Herausforderungen. Woran das liegt und welche Lösungen es geben kann, stellen zwei Fachleute des EWI bei EWI-Insights vor.

The development of the German hydrogen core network will require billions in investment – including from the private sector. A new EWI analysis examines the challenges of the planned financing model.

The generation capacities of conventional power plants on the German electricity market have recently increased. An EWI analysis based on the new EWI Merit Order Tool 2023 shows why this is the case and what developments can be expected.

The first Strommarkttreffen (Ger. electricity market meeting) at the University of Cologne, which was co-organized by the EWI, focused on the heating transition, hydrogen, and grids. The event is part of an open network of energy experts.

Energy storage systems contribute to the robustness of the German energy system. An How high this so-called resilience currently is and which storage systems a resilient, climate-neutral energy system might need shows an EWI analysis.

Hydrogen is to be stored in large quantities in the future energy system to ensure flexibility and security of supply. The EWI shows requirements and potential and determines a range of investment and operating costs.
