E-mobility and the Energy System
Fluctuating renewable energy poses new challenges for future climate-neutral mobility:
- How can the energy and transport sectors benefit from each other?
- How can security of supply be guaranteed for both energy needs and mobility?
- What local, regional, and national energy supply and mobility concepts are economically viable?
Using computer-aided simulations, we compare and optimize a wide range of energy system solutions and environmental scenarios in this research area. These provide a good basis for identifying the best system design for individual applications.
