To support energy systems modelling, DestinE's Digital Twins (DT) of planet Earth allows exploration of the effects of climate change on the different components of the Earth system, together with possible adaptation and mitigation strategies.
DestinE's Use Case Energy Systems demonstrated the integration of climate DT data into energy system modelling used by TSOs and the importance of meteorological datasets for these models.
These models assist planning a better electricity grid in Europe under changing weather and climate-change driven conditions.
On 7 November, RGI and DLR co-organised the webinar “Modelling for climate resilience and adaptation” to present the Use Case’s work. During the occasion, we also showcased the project’s support for the industry and policy-making in planning and modelling energy systems under the broad context of resilience and climate adaptation.
