Offenlegung und Berichterstattung von Klimarisiken und Treibhausgasemissionen: Welche Rolle können diese Ansätze zur Erreichung der Klimaziele spielen?

In diesem BSEC wollen wir mit Blick auf den Anfang der Legislaturperiode fragen, welche Rolle informationsbezogenen Ansätze für Dekarbonisierungs-Entscheidungen in Unternehmen spielen können. Hierzu gab es bereits gesetzgeberische Vorstöße, wie die Corporate-Social-Responsibility-Richtlinie der EU oder konsultative Prozesse (High-Level Expert Group on Sustainable Finance...

Increasing shares of active consumers, distributed generators, new flexibility providers on the distribution network lead a need of coordination between TSO, DSOs and power exchanges.  In this workshop we would like to extend the discussion we had in Mannheim, and ask with more detail the question: What needs to be considered in the market design to coordinate producers, consumers, and...

Workshop on Zonal and Nodal Co-Existence

The question posed in this workshop is not whether zonal or nodal is better - but in the case some countries wish to go to a nodal system, how would that interact with the neighboring electricity markets. Interested countries argue that under subsidiarity it is in their freedom to decide how strong to build their internal networks to avoid constraints or use smaller pricing zones or nodal pricing...

In particular, we are interested to explore how they will likely evolve in a 2030 perspective with increasing shares of wind and solar power and complementing flexibility options in the system (such...
