Wind energy generators sitting and sizing based on uncertain generation pricing
This paper proposes a methodology for sitting and sizing wind distributed generators (WDGs). These generators are characterised by an uncertain active power production due to the random behaviour of the wind speed. The uncertain generation directly impacts the network total generation cost and also the solution for the placement and sizing problem. So, this work takes into account this uncertain ...

Global CSP capacity forecast to hit 22 GW by 2025
New CSP capacity is expected to dip in 2016 and bounce back in 2017 to resume steady growth over the next decade as national energy policies stabilise market conditions, according to the newly released CSP Today Markets Forecast Report: 2015-2025. The CSP industry has come a long way over the last 10 years, demonstrating the technology’s use for a wide range of applications and reinforcing ...

115. Calgary’s wind powered LRT an incredibly successful system: Nenshi
The C-train in Calgary is one of the greatest examples of electrified transport in Canada. It is overwhelmingly popular with residents – it boasts an average weekday ridership of 325,000. It has kick started smarter, denser development around its stations. And best of all it and the City of Calgary’s operations are 100 per cent powered by renewable energy. “It's hugely ...

Bidding and regulating strategies in a dual imbalance pricing system: case study for a Dutch wind producer
In this work, offshore wind power forecast and realisation data are combined with price information from the day-ahead market operated by the Amsterdam Power Exchange and from the imbalance market operated by the Dutch System Operator. This allows for computing spot-market revenues and imbalance penalties or gains for a wind power producer. Three different cases are evaluated: a perfect forecast, ...

An analysis of spatial pricing and renewable generation in the British electricity system
This paper investigates the importance of implementing adequate locational signals and their possible effects on the development of renewable energy sources. In particular, the paper investigates a potential conflict in the British electricity system between the introduction of more efficient spatial pricing and the development of wind energy in the north of the country. The regulatory and ...

The unconventional wisdom on renewable energy and investment
Over the summer, there has been a loud buzz in the media about the need for research and development that would lead to a breakthrough in the cost of clean energy technologies. Financial Times commentator Martin Wolf called for a “moonshot to save the planet” building on the proposal of noted academics and senior industry executives for an “Apollo mission” to put the ...

4 Reasons renewable energy is ready for the president’s climate action plan
The White House’s climate action plan aims to transform the U.S. electricity system in the coming decades. The President directed the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to develop and implement standards to reduce carbon dioxide pollution from power plants, double renewable energy in the United States by 2020, and open public lands to an additional 10 gigawatts of renewable energy ...
