In the beginning of 2024, RGI led two co-creation activities: an online survey and a stakeholder workshop, to showcase and further define the Use Case’s user-oriented developments.
In January and February, RGI and the German Aerospace Center (DLR) invited energy system modellers and planners to answer an online survey, to give their feedback on the Use Case tools. These tools were co-developed with energy system modelling experts, with the goal of fostering a better integration of climate change information in modelling workflows. Through the survey, the Use Case partners could assess whether different challenges related to integration of this data have been adequately addressed within the Use Case tools, and provide suggestions of further improvements.
On 6 February 2024, RGI organised a hybrid “User Perspectives” workshop, at ENTSO-E offices in Brussels, to discuss future user-oriented developments. A group of more than 30 experts attended the workshop, including energy system modellers representing TSOs or research entities, energy regulators, policy officers, and Earth system modellers. The group of interested stakeholders expressed the benefits of DestinE to their work, as it offers both a platform of collaboration and technical support to understand, and account for, the impacts of climate change.
In the context of electricity grids, the Ten-Year Network Development Plan (TYNDP) provides a European-wide planning framework for the future power system to ensure a cost-effective energy transition.
