Electricity system modelling

Aurora Energy Research was commissioned to produce new data modelling of the UK electricity system which supports the report Net Zero: Opportunities for the power sector.

This document explains the background methodology adopted by Aurora for this work. The seven modelling datasets are:

• Input assumptions
• H2 electrolysis – annual
• BECCS baseload – annual
• Electricity system – annual
• H2 reformation – annual
• BECCS – flexible
• Electricity system 65 per cent RES in 2030 – annual

The data files in this zip file contain the half hourly results from the modelling for the scenarios analysed.
