Flexible heating and cooling and geothermal energy storage as an enabler for decarbonized integrated energy systems
A retrofit of the fossil-fuel-dominated heating sector will need new sources of energy supply. At the same time, a significant amount of end-user flexibility will be required to enable an increased share of variable renewable energy sources in the power grid.
The main objective of FLXenabler is to develop an implementable framework for flexible, fossil-free heating and cooling supply and demonstrate the impact of sector coupling and integration of heat pumps, geothermal resources, and thermal energy storage on accelerating the transition into a fully decarbonised energy system in Europe and the U.S.
The project will address the use of flexibility in decarbonized heating and cooling systems at the national, district, and community levels and assess the impact of flexibility at community and district levels on the energy system and decarbonization goals on a national scale.
