Decentralized energy supply represents great potential for the Bavarian economy. On the one hand, companies can make their energy supply more reliable, economical and ecological. On the other hand, a decentralized energy supply for companies can help to close the supply gap that Bavaria is facing as a result of the energy transition and, in particular, the phase-out of nuclear energy.
The core of this research project is the development of a scientifically sound method that enables statements to be made about the feasibility and economic viability of a decentralized energy supply for medium-sized industrial companies. To this end, various technologies as well as general and company-specific framework conditions are analyzed in detail and integrated into a numerical model. The diagram below provides a rough overview of the technologies considered in the model. The various supply and sales options for the possible electricity and heat flows are also shown schematically.
The numerical model provides a tool with which companies can draw conclusions about their individual situation, identify suitable technologies and assess the potential of their own investment. As an example, three case studies are carried out at medium-sized industrial companies, their individual requirements analyzed and a recommendation made regarding the economically optimal energy mix.
