However, VRES feed-in from wind turbines and photovoltaic systems is dependent on the weather and only partially predictable. As a result, existing energy sector models must be re-evaluated and adjusted as necessary. In long-term forecast models, the expansion of VRES must be taken into account so that future local overloads can be identified and measures taken. This paper focuses on one input factor for electrical energy models: the electrical load. We compare two different types to describe this, namely vertical grid load and total load. For the total load, an approach for a spatially-resolved electrical load model is developed and applied at the municipal level in Germany. This model provides detailed information about the load at a quarterly-hour resolution across 11,268 German municipalities. In municipalities with concentrations of energy-intensive industry, high loads are expected, which our simulation reproduces with a good degree of accuracy. Our results also show that municipalities with energy-intensive industry have a higher simulated electric load than neighboring municipalities that do not host energy-intensive industries. The underlying data was extracted from publically accessible sources and therefore the methodology introduced is also applicable to other countries 000829549 536__ $$0G:(DE-HGF)POF3-134$$a134 - Electrolysis and Hydrogen (POF3-134)$$cPOF3-134$$fPOF III$$x0 000829549 588__ $$aDataset connected to CrossRef 000829549 7001_ $$0P:(DE-Juel1)161197$$ater Stein, Felix$$b1 000829549 7001_ $$0P:(DE-Juel1)166481$$aSchwane, Adrien$$b2 000829549 7001_ $$0P:(DE-Juel1)129928$$aStolten, Detlef$$b3$$ufzj 000829549 773__ $$0PERI:(DE-600)2437446-5$$a10.3390/en10030361$$gVol. 10, no. 3, p. 361 -$$n3$$p361 -$$tEnergies$$v10$$x1996-1073$$y2017 000829549 8564_ $$uhttps://juser.fz-juelich.de/record/829549/files/energies-10-00361-v2.pdf$$yOpenAccess 000829549 8564_ $$uhttps://juser.fz-juelich.de/record/829549/files/energies-10-00361-v2.gif?subformat=icon$$xicon$$yOpenAccess 000829549 8564_ $$uhttps://juser.fz-juelich.de/record/829549/files/energies-10-00361-v2.jpg?subformat=icon-1440$$xicon-1440$$yOpenAccess 000829549 8564_ $$uhttps://juser.fz-juelich.de/record/829549/files/energies-10-00361-v2.jpg?subformat=icon-180$$xicon-180$$yOpenAccess 000829549 8564_ $$uhttps://juser.fz-juelich.de/record/829549/files/energies-10-00361-v2.jpg?subformat=icon-640$$xicon-640$$yOpenAccess 000829549 8564_ $$uhttps://juser.fz-juelich.de/record/829549/files/energies-10-00361-v2.pdf?subformat=pdfa$$xpdfa$$yOpenAccess 000829549 8767_ $$8energies-177948$$92017-03-08$$d2017-03-08$$eAPC$$jZahlung erfolgt$$zCHF 1275,- 000829549 909CO $$ooai:juser.fz-juelich.de:829549$$pdnbdelivery$$popenCost$$pVDB$$pdriver$$pOpenAPC$$popen_access$$popenaire 000829549 9101_ $$0I:(DE-588b)5008462-8$$6P:(DE-Juel1)156460$$aForschungszentrum Jülich$$b0$$kFZJ 000829549 9101_ $$0I:(DE-588b)5008462-8$$6P:(DE-HGF)0$$aForschungszentrum Jülich$$b1$$kFZJ 000829549 9101_ $$0I:(DE-588b)5008462-8$$6P:(DE-Juel1)129928$$aForschungszentrum Jülich$$b3$$kFZJ 000829549 9131_ $$0G:(DE-HGF)POF3-134$$1G:(DE-HGF)POF3-130$$2G:(DE-HGF)POF3-100$$3G:(DE-HGF)POF3$$4G:(DE-HGF)POF$$aDE-HGF$$bEnergie$$lSpeicher und vernetzte Infrastrukturen$$vElectrolysis and Hydrogen$$x0 000829549 9141_ $$y2017 000829549 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0200$$2StatID$$aDBCoverage$$bSCOPUS 000829549 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)1160$$2StatID$$aDBCoverage$$bCurrent Contents - Engineering, Computing and Technology 000829549 915__ $$0LIC:(DE-HGF)CCBY4$$2HGFVOC$$aCreative Commons Attribution CC BY 4.0 000829549 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0600$$2StatID$$aDBCoverage$$bEbsco Academic Search 000829549 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0100$$2StatID$$aJCR$$bENERGIES : 2015 000829549 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0501$$2StatID$$aDBCoverage$$bDOAJ Seal 000829549 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0500$$2StatID$$aDBCoverage$$bDOAJ 000829549 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0111$$2StatID$$aWoS$$bScience Citation Index Expanded 000829549 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0150$$2StatID$$aDBCoverage$$bWeb of Science Core Collection 000829549 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)9900$$2StatID$$aIF < 5 000829549 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0510$$2StatID$$aOpenAccess 000829549 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0030$$2StatID$$aPeer Review$$bASC 000829549 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0199$$2StatID$$aDBCoverage$$bThomson Reuters Master Journal List 000829549 920__ $$lyes 000829549 9201_ $$0I:(DE-Juel1)IEK-3-20101013$$kIEK-3$$lElektrochemische Verfahrenstechnik$$x0 000829549 9801_ $$aFullTexts 000829549 980__ $$ajournal 000829549 980__ $$aVDB 000829549 980__ $$aUNRESTRICTED 000829549 980__ $$aI:(DE-Juel1)IEK-3-20101013 000829549 980__ $$aAPC 000829549 981__ $$aI:(DE-Juel1)ICE-2-20101013
