The impact of 100% electrification of domestic heat in Great Britain | Overall peak heat demand derived here is almost 50% lower than widely cited values ( www.cell.com )
Using hourly historical gas demand data, we conclude that the domestic peak heat demand is almost 50% lower than widely cited values. A 100% electrification pathway can be achieved with only a 1.3-fold increase in generation capacity compared to a power-only decarbonization scenario, but only by leveraging the role of thermal...
