For variable renewable energies, we implemented two parameterized cost markup functions for storage and long-distance transmission grids - see Section [[REMINDIMPORT/Grid-and-infrastructure---REMIND_34379406#Gridandinfrastructure-REMIND-Grid|Grid and Infrastructure]]. To represent the general need for flexibility even in a thermal power system, we included a further flexibility constraint based on Sullivan et al. (2013).

      Around twenty electricity generation technologies are represented in REMIND, see Table 4, with several low-carbon (CCS) and zero carbon options (nuclear and renewables).

      Table 4. Energy Conversion Technologies for Electricity (Note: * indicates that technologies can be combined with CCS).

      For variable renewable energies, we implemented two parameterized cost markup functions for storage and long-distance transmission grids - see Section Grid and Infrastructure. To represent the general need for flexibility even in a thermal power system, we included a further flexibility constraint based on Sullivan et al. (2013).

      The techno-economic parameters of power technologies used in the model are given in Table 5 for fuel-based technologies and Table 6 for non-biomass renewables. For wind, solar and hydro, capacity factors depend on grades, see Section Non-biomass renewables.

      Table 5. Techno-economic characteristics of technologies based on exhaustible energy sources and biomass (Iwasaki 2003; Hamelinck 2004; Bauer 2005; Ansolabehere et al. 2007; Gül et al. 2007; Ragettli 2007; Schulz 2007; Uddin and Barreto 2007; Rubin et al. 2007; Takeshita and Yamaji 2008; Brown et al. 2009; Klimantos et al. 2009; Chen and Rubin 2009).

      For abbreviations see Table Acronyms and Abbreviations ; * for joint production processes; § nuclear reactors with thermal efficiency of 33%; # technologies with exogenously improving efficiencies. 2005 values are represented by the lower end of the range. Long-term efficiencies (reached after 2045) are represented by high-end ranges.
