Effects of a Delayed Expansion of Interconnector Capacities in a High RES-E European Electricity System - Dataset

Input and output data of the modelling work for the paper Effects of a Delayed Expansion of Interconnector Capacities in a High RES-E European Electricity System

Considered scenario years: 2030, 2040 and 2050

The profiles are based on the historical year 2016.

Two scenarios are included: lower connectivity and high connectivity

The data cover the ENTSO-E member countries except Iceland and Cyprus and is given in country-specific resolution.

Input:

Demand as hourly profile in MWh

Variable RES-E as hourly profile in MWh

Power plant fleet as capacities in MW

NTCs as capacities in MW

Output:

CO2 emissions as annual data in Mt

Variable electricity generation costs as annual data in MEur

Variable electricity generation costs per generation as annual data in Euro/MWh

Electricity generation as annual data in TWh

Electricity export as annual data in TWh

Electricity import as annual data in TWh

Transit flows as annual data in TWh
