Offshore wind power emits low amounts of gases, is renewable and has better performance than onshore due to its greater stability and higher wind power density, less visual and noise impact, among others. Brazil has a ...

Offshore wind energy potential and its technical and economic feasibility were determined in Chile. Wind speed data from ERA-Interim reanalysis 10 m above the sea surface between 1979 and 2014 was used. The capacity factor ...

Northern Chile has excellent conditions to develop concentrated solar power projects. Although solar irradiation makes a significant contribution to production in the region, solar thermal projects need some support ...

Northern Chile has excellent conditions to develop concentrated solar power projects. Although solarirradiation makes a significant contribution to production in the region, solar thermal projects needsome support mechanisms. ...

Two photovoltaic technologies are compared with regard to the energy yield, performance ratio and their levelized cost of energy. Plants based on amorphous/microcrystalline silicon tandem thin films and multicrystalline ...

Concentrating Solar Power (CSP) technologies are getting increasing attention from researchers all around the world, since they represent a renewable alternative for power generation that, unlike wind and photovoltaic ...

This study calculates the LCOE (Levelized Cost of Energy) on the PSDA (Atacama Solar Platform) for a solar–solar energy mix with the objective of evaluate new options for continuous energy delivery. LCOE was calculated for ...

Este trabalho tem como objeto avaliar a viabilidade econômica de um minigerador solar fotovoltaico de 5 MWp a ser instalada na unidade consumidora Cidade Universitária localizada no Campus Trindade da UFSC. Para análise ...
