REEEM: Final Meeting and Data Publication
Mascha Richter and Ludwig Hülk participated in the final project meeting in Brussels in July 2019 and presented the public relations work and the project database developed by the RLI. With the completion of the EU research project REEEM, the RLI has published the majority of the project results with open licenses. This includes all project reports that are now available via Zenodo with DOI as well as various model data stored on the OpenEnergyPlatform (OEP). The model data are both the input parameters and the result data of the individual models. Special…
REEEM AIMS to gain a clear and comprehensive understanding of the system-wide implications of energy strategies in support of transitions to a competitive low-carbon EU energy society, given the objectives and framework outlined in the Strategic Energy Technology Plan. The provisions of the energy services in this society will be defined by their sustainability, affordability, efficiency, energy security and reliability.
The supportive technology impact assessments will target the full integration from demand to supply and from the individual to the entire system. It will further address the trade-offs across society, environment and economy along the whole transition pathway… Read more

Focus Report - Health Impacts and External Costs due to Air Pollution
25 June 2019
This Deliverable 5.2 "Focus Report on Health Impacts and External Costs due to Air Pollution" describes the methodology, main results and insights with regard to health and environmental impacts due to air pollution as an additional indicator for sustainable transformation pathways. By carrying out a comparative scenario analysis of three different pathways, which all feature ambitious GHG mitigation targets, the interactions of decarbonisation and air pollution control are studied, with one scenario having ambitious RES targets as an additional decarbonisation… Read More »
A look back at the REEEM workshop on Regional Aspects of European Energy Transition
12 June 2019
© Vygaudas Juozaitis LNB On June 4, one of the last REEEM Project stakeholder workshops was held in Vilnius. It aimed at discussing energy security and other energy transition issues that are especially relevant for the Baltic region. Lina Sabaitienė, Vice-Minister of Energy of Lithuania, and Virgilijus Poderys, member of Lithuanian Parliament and Chair of the Commission for Energy and Sustainable Development, opened the workshop and highlighted the most important current issues in the energy landscape of the Baltic region. The members of REEEM team provided… Read More »
Economic Impacts of Energy Transition – Linking energy system model TIMES PanEU with NEWAGE
05 June 2019
An energy transition implying deep fuel shifts and significant investments towards decarbonisation is likely to carry impacts on economies, in terms of GDP growth, job market, gains or losses in competitiveness, etc. This analysis is carried out with NEWAGE, a top-down, recursive dynamic general equilibrium model which finds the pare to point between different players in the economy in REEEM project. However, as much as the development of the energy sector has implications for the whole economy, conversely the whole economy (population, GDP and industrial growths… Read More »
Journal paper - Technology interdependency in the United Kingdom's low carbon energy transition
03 June 2019
Figure X. Representation of clusters in a dendrogram, using a hierarchical clustering approach. Clusters are built from the bottom-up, with closely related metrics first pairing together, then the pairs being paired, until all clusters form a single cluster. This figure shows 10 specific clusters, shown by different colours. A new paper was published online in April 2019 by the journal "Energy Strategy Reviews" based on REEEM research. Titled "Technology interdependency in the United Kingdom's low carbon energy transition", the paper sets out to explore the… Read More »
REEEM at International Conference on Energy, Sustainability and Climate Change
29 May 2019
From June 3rd to 7th 2019, the REEEM partner from Energy Institute Hrvoje Pozar (EIHP) will participate in the 6th International Conference on "Energy, Sustainability and Climate Change" in Chania, Greece. For EIHP, Martina Mikulić, Dražen Balić and Ivana Milinković Turalija will participate in the conference. In Session 6 "Power Systems - Renewable Energy", they will present the REEEM case study on Grid and Dispatch in South Eastern Europe. The International Conference on Energy, Sustainability and Climate Change is a platform for experts in the fields of energy… Read More »
REEEM Workshop: Regional Aspects of European Energy Transition
28 May 2019
Lithuanian Energy Institute (LEI) invites to a workshop REGIONAL ASPECTS OF EUROPEAN ENERGY TRANSITION which will be held on June 4th from 12:00 to 16:00 in the Martynas Mažvydas National Library of Lithuania (Gedimino 51-305, Vilnius, Lithuania). This workshop is a part of the REEEM project, which is financed by the European Commission through the program Horizon 2020.

Case Study Report - Grid and Dispatch in South Eastern Europe
22 May 2019
This deliverable includes methodology, main results and findings from case study on Grid and Dispatch in South Eastern Europe (SEE). Case studies in REEEM are considered to have a deeper look at certain regions and different modelling approaches for the transition pathways of European Union towards a low carbon society. This case study verifies the feasibility of yearly balance calculated in TIMES PanEU for five countries in SEE, in order to analyse the influence of short-term variability on long-term investments and resulting system configurations. PLEXOS is used… Read More »
Look back at the 7th General Assembly: the outcome
16 May 2019
From April 15th - 17th the REEEM partners have met in Copenhagen at DTU for the 7th and last General Assembly of the REEEM project. During the two days, the participants exchanged results and processed the work in the project (read here more details about the agenda of the past GA). Besides finalizing the results and discussing the progress, the consortium decided to create a brochure which showcases the REEEM results and the strengths and assets of the REEEM partners for possible future cooperations and projects. The brochure will of course be available on this… Read More »
