Average hours of wind and photovoltaic power generation

4 Frequently Asked Questions about “Average hours of wind and photovoltaic power generation - ANA Energy Systems S.L.”

What is the time series for wind and solar generation?

The time series for wind and solar generation span from 2004 to 2018 and are derived from meteorological data provided by satellite reanalysis data. The wind and solar time series are provided for different spatial distributions of generator locations in order to examine the effect of spatial capacity distributions on the time series.

How many years of data are available for wind and solar power?

For each region at least one year and up to 12 years of time coherent data sets is available as can be seen from Table 1. The wind and solar power time series are based on gridded data (based on satellites and reanalysis models), which differs from actual measured data in meteorological stations [40,41].

Do technological improvements lead to a faster growth of PV and wind power?

In our optimal case, the projected cost reduction by technological improvements 20 and the low-cost energy sources identification at sub-national scales 23 together lead to a faster growth of PV and wind-power generation than the prediction based on the historical trends.

How many PV and wind power plants are there?

We obtain the locations of 22,821 potential PV and wind-power plants, which are distributed in 192 countries. Second, we divide the area used to construct a new power plant into pixels at a resolution of 0.0083° in latitude and 0.0333° in longitude.
