To achieve the decarbonisation of the electricity sector, a significant amount of renewable energy sources (RES) generation capacity is required to replace the phased-out fossil base load capacities. This process involves electrifying other energy sectors (e.g. transport), which will further increase the electricity demand to be covered by RES.
Besides, if energy price stays at very low values for long times, the existing generation facilities, either renewable or not, might become less and less cost effective thus reducing the interest of the operators in investing their funds in new renewable projects. An increased flexibility option in this framework even by adding new value to ...
