For 2030 scenarios of Germany with a renewable share of at least 80%, we show that switching to electric carsharing only moderately increases power sector costs.

As variable renewable energy sources increasingly gain importance in global energy systems, there is a growing interest in understanding periods of variable renewable energy shortage (``Dunkelflauten'').

Results show that power sector costs are lowest for flexibly charged BEV that also carry out vehicle-to-grid operations, and highest for HDV using e-fuels.

In a 100% renewable energy scenario of twelve central European countries, we investigate how geographical balancing between countries reduces the need for electricity storage.

For the simple configuration, we mathematically show that this coupling scheme corresponds uniquely to an iterative mapping of the Lagrangians of two power sector optimization problems of different time resolutions, which can lead to a comprehensive model convergence of both decision variables and (shadow) prices.

We further find deviations in model results of optimal storage and transmission capacity expansion between regions and link them to variable renewable energy generation and demand characteristics.

In this paper, we provide an analytical representation of different approaches for implementing minimum renewable share constraints in models, and show how these may lead to unintended storage cycling.
