Book Synopsis

To avoid greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and mitigate climate change, low-carbon technologies must be used to provide renewable energy and replace fossil fuels. However, this system transition is very material-intensive and leads to high demand for critical materials. Copper is such a material that is essential for electrical applications and many low-carbon technologies. The production of copper itself is an energyintensive process. Thus, two challenges arise that are addressed in this thesis: the flexible process operation in a fluctuating renewable energy system and the avoidance of process-based GHG emissions.

The flexible operation of electricity-intensive processes can support the power grid and provide economic benefits. Demand response (DR) describes operational adjustments based on an economic incentive, such as fluctuating electricity prices. Our initial analysis shows a large DR potential of two electricity-intensive process steps in copper production. To consider th
