Abstract

The recent unfolding of natural gas sources, especially unconventional gas shales and substituted natural gas from renewables, can boost the transition toward a low carbon energy system. However, it is necessary to study how the gas network, traditionally supplied with fossil fuel gas, could be operated in a more complex scenario that includes multiple and distributed energy sources.
