Can a solar-wind system meet future energy demands?

Accelerating energy transition towards renewables is central to net-zero emissions. However, building a global power system dominated by solar and wind energy presents immense challenges. Here, we demonstrate the potential of a globally interconnected solar-wind system to meet future electricity demands.

Is the west connect region a good place for solar energy?

In the USA, it is feasible for the West Connect region to accommodate 30% wind and 5% solar energy penetration (Lew et al., 2013, Lew and Piwko, 2010, Miller et al., 2014, National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL), 2010.

Can combined wind and solar power improve grid integration?

The combined use of wind and solar power is crucial for large-scale grid integration. Review of state-of-the-art approaches in the literature survey covers 41 papers. The paper proposes an ideal complementarity analysis of wind and solar sources. Combined wind and solar generation results in smoother power supply in many places.

Where do wind energy resources complement solar energy?

For example, according to Nascimento et al. , wind resources complement solar energy by 40 %–50 % in the Brazilian Northeast along the coastline, reaching up to 60 % in Rio Grande do Norte state. Concerning other regions, the complementarity levels reach 40 % in the South, Southeast, and the remainder of the Northeast .
