F4: Monitoring concept "Sustainability of H2 production"

This subproject evaluates, with the help of metrics on simulation specifications, the sustainability of regional energy networks. Metrics are measures that determine values at inputs and outputs of the simulated energy network, for example minimum input quantities or output quantities. Such energy metrics allow questions to be asked about the efficiency of the Renewable Energy (RE) used and to be answered by the simulation. Building on this, sustainability metrics allow questions about the sustainability of an energy network to be asked and answered. The aim is to use the metrics to make sustainable decisions on the implementation of regional energy grids, in particular on how the use of RE can be increased. In doing so, the impacts of the other projects of the Cluster are recorded and at the same time the energy and sustainability metrics are fed back to them. The "Autarchic Energy Park" is used as a reference example. For simulation, acausal (undirected) simulation languages such as contextual Modelica, Dymola, and contextual Petri nets based on them are used. These languages make it possible for the first time to model regional energy grids with variable system structures, which is extremely important for the sustainable deployment of RE and goes beyond the state of the art in research.
