energieroutes
Energieroutes refer to planned or existing corridors that facilitate the generation, transmission, and distribution of energy across regions. The concept covers multiple energy carriers, including electricity, natural gas, hydrogen, and district heating, and emphasizes the alignment of supply with demand while enabling the integration of renewable energy sources.
Physically, energieroutes can involve high-voltage transmission lines, offshore cables, gas pipelines, hydrogen transport networks, and district
Policy context and examples: In the European Union, the TEN-E policy identifies energy corridors to accelerate
Challenges and considerations: planning and permitting across jurisdictions, capital costs, environmental and social impact, land use,
