REFLEX project meeting at KTH in Stockholm

REFLEX project meeting at KTH in Stockholm

The REFLEX consortium met from 23 – 24 May 2017 at KTH Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm to discuss the progress in the first project year. During this two-day meeting first project results were presented and next steps in different working packages were discussed. Special focus was given to the implementation of the model coupling as well as the calculation of experience curves for selected technologies. There will be an expert workshop in autumn 2017 to discuss the project insights with regard to experience curves (calculation and model implementation) with the scientific community.

It is the core objective of REFLEX to analyse and evaluate the development towards a low-carbon energy system with focus on flexibility options in the EU up to the year 2050 to support the implementation of the SET-Plan. The analysis is based on a modelling environment that considers the full extent to which current and future energy technologies and policies interfere and how they affect the environment and society while considering technological learning of low-carbon and flexibility technologies. For this purpose, REFLEX brings together the comprehensive expertise and competences of known European experts from six different countries.

The project started on 1^st  May 2016 and receives funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement No. 691685.
