A x/14 Thread on the AukeHoekstra vs Thomas Koch dipute.
1/x Auke, instead of wordy explanations, let's clarify using calculations. For the sake of simple minds like me,
let`s apply the Ceteris Paribus Definition, in a simple fashion, without requiring the specific math expertise of @nworbmot 😊 Let me give it a try.`and comment
2/x Status:
EL Energy Mix Emission= 400 g/kWh CO2
EL Energy VRE Emission = 0 g/kWh CO2
EL Energy Fossil = 800 g/kWh CO2(coal)
EL-production share VRE= 50%
EL-production share fossil= 50%
EL-demand=500 TWh /year(German case)
3/x Now consider one can do a total (private+public) investment of, limited to, XXXX M€, and let`s calculate with your favored average g/kWh approach. (just to make it easier, I will not use marginal energy)
4/x In Scenario 1
The investment is 100% applied to implement BEV + Infrastructure. NO EXTRA VRE investment can be done since 0% budget is remaining=> No additional VRE EL production is possible.
5/x ADDITIONAL DEMAND origination from BEV = 100 TWh,
(50E6 PKW × 10.000 km/yr × 20kWh/100km)
=>EL production has to increase from 500- to 600 TWh
6/x In Scenario 2
the investment is 100% assigned to extra VRE production, resulting in a new EL-production share of 60%VRE.
40% EL remaining fossil. No BEV investment can be realized, bc. remaining budget=0. Total El-production =El-demand, remains 500 TWh
7/x Resulting from transient acc. to Scenario 1.
New energy shares: 250 TWh origination from VRE and 350 TWh originating from fossil
=> (250 ÷600)×100%= 41,66% VRE, dropped from 50%
=> (350÷600)×100%=58,33% fossil, increased from 50%
8/x EL-Mix-CO2-emission increases form 400 g/kWh to (0,4166 × 0 +0,5833 × 800)= 466,66 g/kWh
66,66 g/kWh worse. This also applies to all other EL consumers, even for those who cannot afford a BEV.
Ref: CO2 taxation.
9/x Resulting fromScenario 2
New energy share: 10 % additional VRE, yields a reduction of 10% fossil production Total EL production remains 500 TWh
This results in a new EL-Mix-CO2 emission. (0,60 × 0 + 0,40 × 800) = 320 g/kWh.
80 g/kWh better!For all El-consumers tot. 500TWh
10/ Traditional ICE fuel consumption to beat BEV
After Scenario 2. EL- Energy mix = 466,66 g/kWh.
ICE Fuel consumption to beat BEV (for gasoline @ WTW 2, 884 kg CO2/liter )= 3,26 lit/100 km
(466,66 [g/kWh]×20 [kWh/100 km)÷2884 g/dm³)= 3,26 [dm³/100 km]
11/x Bottom line.
Implementation of BEV will cause extra EL demand and will hamper the reduction of specific CO2 emissions [g/kWh] of the grid for a given VRE share. You can spend the XXXX M€ budget only once.
12/x Final Remarks-1
Effects disregarded in this brief calculation:
a) Additional CO2 emission/reduction due to efficiency drop of fossil power generation because of VRE-balancing and due to V2G capability of BEV, respectively.
13/x Also being disregarded:
b) CO2 bag pack consideration
c) Additional CO2 reduction due to reduced oil consumption of ICE replaced by BEV
d) Abschaltung AKW
e) Effects of Black-outs after switching off KKW and AKW in Germany.
14/x Questions
@AukeHoekstra What scenario ( 1 or 2) gives the best value for money in terms of CO2 reduction (kg/ €)
@nworbmot Is there an optimal distribution of budget over VRE implementation and BEV implementation which gives optimal benefit in terms of CO2 reduction/€

15/x
When using Aver-energy-mix for BEV => CO2 footprint of non-BEV users gets worse in Scenario-1
