Abstract:
This presentation offers a practical research example on the integration of meteorological data in energy system analysis, with a focus on electricity supply security in Germany. Using the EWI energy system model, the presented study investigates how weather-driven variables influence the reliability of the power supply, particularly during extreme weather events. By demonstrating the impact of meteorological factors on energy systems, the research illustrates the importance of accurate weather and climate data in modelling energy systems.
Bio:
Berit Hanna Czock is a Project Lead at EWI and a doctoral candidate at the University of Cologne. Her research focusses on electricity market modelling and design. In consulting projects for clients from the industry and public sectors, she has analyzed, for example, how Germany could become climate neutral by 2045. She has advised, among others, the German Energy Agency (dena) as well as different DSOs and TSOs. From 2021 to 2023, Berit Hanna Czock joined the Cologne-Bonn “Climate Monitoring and Diagnostics” group at the Hans-Ertel-Centre for Weather Research (HErZ) of the Deutscher Wetterdienst as a doctoral researcher. At HErZ she conducts research on security of supply and the impact of extreme weather in electricity systems with high shares of renewables. Before joining EWI, Berit Hanna Czock studied Sustainable Energy Science at Reykjavik University (Reykjavik, Iceland) and Economics at the University of Cologne.
