@theEnergyMads You are very welcome Mads- yes let’s keep in touch if you come to dk. Electricity prize volatility is defines part of it.

New paper out on how energy planners use plans!
We look at something most energy researchers take for given: What is the actual use of plans and how do they contribute in practice?
Its #openaccess 😎

@theEnergyMads @BrianVad @aauenergyplan And to your 2nd question - it is one large storage of 70.000m3 placed in Høje Taastrup. There are plans to expand with more though

@timtroendle @Joule_CP @JLilliestam @SteMarelli @stefpf @IASS_Potsdam @ETH Very interesting work indeed. To which extend have you included #electrification of #heating, #mobility or #P2X in your study? Those factors would support the case for local/regional systems.

Wow - just saw that my paper with @BrianVad about #EU28 #heat supply is one of the top 10 downloaded from @energies_mdpi from April - July.
Almost at 2000 downloads!

@Eurogas_Eu Don’t we need hydrogen for more valuable uses than heating? Plenty of excess heating available throughout EU.
Right that electrification of heating is not the best way forward, but neither is hydrogen.

@ehpabrussels @BrianVad @H2020EE @HeatRoadmapEU @eaEnergyEU @AgoraEW @BPIE_eu @EuroheatPower @eumayors @ICLEI @ICLEI_Europe Our paper assesses residential heat consumption (space heat + hot water). This we quantify to around 2625 TWh final energy or ~3000 TWh primary (2927 TWh in 2015), which accounts for around 16% of total primary energy in EU-28. (removed old tweet due to wrong figure!)

This report analyses the enabling role of #EnergyEfficiency in the transition towards a #decarbonised #heating & #cooling sector in Europe. Specifically in the #DistrictEnergy sector, including technologies to leverage the potential.

@PaulPTHughes @BrianVad @janrosenow @HeatRoadmapEU Interesting! I guess it’s related to staying home more? Can you relate to type of heating, building quality, number of residents etc?

We could only find a comprehensive dataset until 2015. After that there are significant knowledge gaps.

Eurostat has some updated data, but not as comprehensive as the data we used in the article. The odyssee-mure database was also an important source for this paper.

@NewAngliaEnergy @BrianVad Thank you for the kind words Nigel!

I am happy to share my new paper authored by me and @BrianVad about EU-28 Residential Heat Supply and Consumption: Historical Development and Status
See thread for highlights
Heres residential final heat consumption in the EU-28:

[Nis Bertelsen @nisbertelsen]

Our conclusions are:
1) There is a high degree of #pathdependency in residential heat supply.
2) We are lacking consumption data, where #smartmeters could play a role.
And 3) we need to limit the use of fossil-fuels in heating.
