Energy System Analysis

As a result of the transition to climate neutrality, the energy system is undergoing a fundamental transformation: it is becoming more technologically diverse, decentralised, flexible, integrated and digital.

But where exactly is this journey heading, and which paths lead to the destination? The CINES energy system analysis helps to provide guidance in the new, complex energy landscape of tomorrow.

Our topics and services

For power station operators and industry

Strategic analysis and optimisation of hydrogen procurement costs

We calculate and optimise the supply costs for green hydrogen, including transport and storage, tailored to the specific location and usage profile.

For industry and the energy sector

Technology consultancy and site assessment

High energy costs and an uncertain regulatory environment make investing in Germany as a business location and in energy technologies a risky proposition. We can help you make informed decisions.

For gas network operators

Planning of CO₂ networks

CO₂ networks form the backbone of future carbon management. Fraunhofer CINES provides gas network operators with the data and methods they need to develop a robust infrastructure for the energy and industrial systems of the future.
