15 Nov 2017 | Abstract: | The high temporal variability of wind power generation represents a major
challenge for the realization of a sustainable energy supply. Large backup and
storage facilities are necessary to secure the supply in periods of low
renewable generation, especially in countries with a high share of renewables.
We show that strong climate change is likely to impede the system integration
of intermittent wind energy. To this end, we analyze the temporal
characteristics of wind power generation based on high-resolution climate
projections for Europe and uncover a robust increase of backup energy and
storage needs in most of Central, Northern and North-Western Europe. This
effect can be traced back to an increase of the likelihood for long periods of
low wind generation and an increase in the seasonal wind variability. | Source: | arXiv, 1711.5569 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
