Entwicklung eines Energiemodells für Analysen von Energiebereitstellungsstrukturen

The transformation of primary energy carriers and the energy supply to the consumers is directly connected to the use of renewable and non-renewable resources, emission into environment and the production of waste. These energy-related material flows are of main interest in the assessment of an energy intensive product’s resource intensity. Objective of this paper is the development of a methodology and its application in a model for determination of the material flows related to the electricity supply. As an example, the model is applied to the analysis of primary aluminum production. Different structures for electricity supply are balanced for several countries. These structures include national grids as well as specific process chains for power production from different fuels. The influence on the resulting material flows by different system boundaries, defined by the different structures of the electricity system (for example, electricity system based on entirely domestic production or the system that considers the import options from other countries) is investigated in detail. Additionally, potentials for primary energy savings and reduction in green house gas emissions associated with the improvement of the electricity and primary aluminium production processes are assessed.
