Clean Power Flexibility Investigation
Abstract
Clean Power 2030 (CP2030) aims for a fully decarbonised electricity system, using unabated gas, only as backup. This introduces an important challenge: how can the gas transmission network remain viable and deliver flexibility during extreme demand events, despite not being utilised most of the time? This project aims to understand how to sustain the gas network technically and economically in a low average, high peak demand future, focusing on the interaction between gas and electricity systems.
