TL;DR: In this article, the authors developed a method to simulate the performance and determine the levelized cost of hybrid systems to provide firm electricity supply under various supply strategies such as peak demand and baseload at three different scales (representative sizes).

TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed an open-source dispatch sector coupling model (GRIMSEL-AH) to minimize energy system costs (social planner perspective) for heating and electricity supply in Switzerland with hourly and daily time resolution for electricity and heating respectively.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors identify a range of retrofit pathways, using a dynamic stock model, a bottom-up energy model and an optimization model for different climate scenarios, for different economic/environmental objectives until 2060.

TL;DR: In this paper, the impact of bulk electric storage on the production from dispatchable power plants for rising variable renewable electricity shares is discussed. And two complementary optimization frameworks are used to represent power systems with a varying degree of complexity.

TL;DR: In this paper, the optimal configuration of PV and electricity storage in a detailed representation of the Swiss power system is discussed and the sensitivity of storage deployment with respect to distribution network capacity is also investigated.
