Abstract
The energy transformation and the accompanied digitalization create opportunities for new business models in the energy system. This article presents a method that allows to examine the possible business models regarding their potential success in the energy market from a business perspective. In an interactive tool, the methodological approach combines a qualitative assessment with a quantitative evaluation using a discounted cashflow method. The method is applied to several case studies and its generalizability is demonstrated. The tool allows to investigate various business models of the energy sector.
