3.1 Base caseA nor<strong>the</strong>rn European energy system including <strong>the</strong> Sc<strong>and</strong>inavian countries <strong>and</strong> Germany,is used <strong>for</strong> <strong>the</strong> analyses. Each country is modelled as one region except from Denmark<strong>and</strong> Germany, due to bottlenecks in <strong>the</strong> system.Power <strong>and</strong> transport dem<strong>and</strong> is set according to [18] (Table 1). The source only includesEU-countries.

The electric efficiency today is approx. 5 km/kWh [21], [22], [23]. Basedon <strong>the</strong>se efficiencies <strong>and</strong> assumed evolution, <strong>the</strong> efficiency is believed to reach approx. 7km/kWh by 2030. Based on [24], <strong>the</strong> battery size by 2030 will provide a driving range of50 km <strong>for</strong> PHEVs <strong>and</strong> 200 km <strong>for</strong> BEVs.The vehicles are assumed to be plugged-in when parked, making <strong>the</strong> batteries availableto <strong>the</strong> transmission system operator. Driving patterns are derived from <strong>the</strong> investigationof transport habits in Denmark [25]. Driving habits are assumed to be <strong>the</strong> same <strong>for</strong> all <strong>the</strong>Nordic countries. Grid capacity is set to 6.9 kW (3 phase 10 Amp with a 230V cable).Risø International <strong>Energy</strong> Conference 2011 Proceedings Page 418
