Climate-neutral energy system solutions for 7 cities and counties in Europe, Asia and Africa were calculated and compared to identify climate zone-depending patterns for the structures of climate-neutral energy systems. It could be demonstrated that climate zones have a strong influence on the design of climate-neutral energy supply systems, both in terms of renewable energy provision (e.g. solar radiation) and energy consumption (e.g. space heating demand).enLeistungselektronikNetze und Intelligente Systemeclimate neutral citiesclimate zonesenergy system modelingEnergiesystemanalyse621697conference paper
