The role of storage technologies throughout the decarbonisation of the sector-coupled European energy system [PDF]
Energy Conversion and Management (2019), 2019 We use an open, hourly-resolved, networked model of the European energy system to investigate the storage requirements under decreasing CO$_2$ emissions targets and several sector-coupling scenarios. For the power system, significant storage capacities only emerge for CO$_2$ reductions higher than 80% of 1990 level in that sector.
