TLDR
In this article, the authors interpolate between two concepts for balancing the variability of these renewable sources: balancing at continental scales using the transmission grid and balancing locally with storage, by systematically restricting transmission capacities from the optimum level to zero.About:

Status and perspectives on 100% renewable energy systems
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors show that research in the design of 100% renewable energy systems in scientific articles is fairly new but has gained increasing attention in recent years, and there is a need for applying a cross-sectoral holistic approach as well as coordinating individual country studies with the global context.

Synergies of sector coupling and transmission reinforcement in a cost-optimised, highly renewable European energy system
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors considered both cross-sector and cross-border integration in the model PyPSA-Eur-Sec-30, the first open, spatially-resolved, temporally resolved and sector-coupled energy model of Europe, and calculated the cost-optimal system for a 95% reduction in carbon dioxide emissions compared to 1990, incorporating electricity, transport and heat demand.

Flexible electricity generation, grid exchange and storage for the transition to a 100% renewable energy system in Europe
TL;DR: In this article, two transition pathways towards a 100% renewable energy (RE) power sector by 2050 are simulated for Europe using the LUT Energy System Transition model, where regions are modelled independently, and the second is an area scenario, which has transmission interconnections between regions.

Response to 'Burden of proof': A comprehensive review of the feasibility of 100% renewable-electricity systems'
Tom Brown,Tom Brown,Tobias Bischof-Niemz,Kornelis Blok,Christian Breyer,Henrik Lund,Brian Vad Mathiesen +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors of the article "Burden of proof: a comprehensive review of the feasibility of 100% renewable-electricity systems" claim that many studies of 100 % renewable electricity systems do not demonstrate sufficient technical feasibility, according to the criteria of the authors (henceforth "the authors").
Journal ArticleDOI
PyPSA: Python for Power System Analysis
TL;DR: The basic functionality of PyPSA is described, including the formulation of the full power flow equations and the multi-period optimisation of operation and investment with linear power flow equation.

Smart Energy Systems for coherent 100% renewable energy and transport solutions
Brian Vad Mathiesen,Henrik Lund,David Connolly,Henrik Wenzel,Poul Alberg Østergaard,Bernd Möller,Steffen Nielsen,Iva Ridjan,Peter Karnøe,Karl Sperling,Frede Hvelplund +10 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present the development and design of coherent smart energy systems as an integrated part of achieving future 100% renewable energy and transport solutions, which can potentially pave the way to a bioenergy-free, renewable energy- and transport system.
Journal ArticleDOI
From electricity smart grids to smart energy systems – A market operation based approach and understanding
TL;DR: In this article, the authors argue that the long-term relevant systems are those in which such measures are combined with energy conservation and system efficiency improvements, and emphasize the inclusion of flexible CHP production in the electricity balancing and grid stabilisation.
