Sustainable energy supply and climate change

01.01.2009 - 31.01.2012
Forschungsförderungsprojekt
In the project it is presumed, that in Austria end-use efficiency and energy saving technologies are widely used. The centralized energy systems shall be developed for new tasks in a way that in total a safe, efficient and predominant renewable energy system of the future comes into being. For this purpose the following investigations are performed: • Evaluation and prognosis of large area risks caused by the climate change • Optimal mix of renewable sources according to their potential and risk • Analysis of centralized storage technologies for improvement of security of supply (storage volume, symmetry of upper and lower storage, power of pumps and turbines) • Analysis of joint usage of decentralized storage technologies, especially the possibilities of using batteries of electrical cars • Simulation of extreme weather conditions and evaluation of the consequences for the energy supply • Development of congestion management strategies (local, nation, international backup strategies)
