Cross-sectoral integration for increased penetration of renewable energy sources in the energy system – Unlocking the flexibility potential of maritime transport electrification

The creation of smart energy systems is essential for the transition European Union. Electrification and integration maritime transport with power system becoming highly important in order to successfully decarbonise transportation increase possibility renewable sources. This study presents a novel method analysis system. includes model electric ships that include all relevant engine, ship route storage aspects. By including charging variable it possible connect distribution grid. provides analyse impact different connection options shares sources present found such can have positive on overall In particular, grid led reduction curtailed by 3.9 MWh Kvarner archipelago maximum analysed penetration • A mathematical electrified transportation.
