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.
What are the technical parameters of energy storage?
Two key technical parameters of energy storage are considered: the maximum operational power and the average storage duration. The round-trip efficiency of energy storage is set to 90%, referencing commercial storage technologies 63.
Are solar and wind resources interconnected?
Theoretically, the potential of solar and wind resources on Earth vastly surpasses human demand 33, 34. In our pursuit of a globally interconnected solar-wind system, we have focused solely on the potentials that are exploitable, accessible, and interconnectable (see “Methods”).
Where do grid-boxes contain solar and wind resources?
In densely populated regions such as western Europe, India, eastern China, and western United States, most grid-boxes contain solar and wind resources apt for interconnection (Supplementary Fig. S1). Nevertheless, these regions exhibit modest power generation potential, typically not exceeding 1.0 TWh/year (Fig. 1a).
What is the difference between flexible units and solar and wind generation?
In our model, solar and wind generation are explicitly modeled with high-resolution temporal and spatial variations, whereas flexible units are collectively represented as a dispatchable reserve used to balance residual load fluctuations after solar and wind generation and trans-regional exchanges have been accounted for.
How can a solar-wind strategy be improved?
By optimizing solar-wind deployment, storage capacity, and trans-regional transmission, the solar-wind penetration could be achieved using only 29.4% of the highest potential, with a 15.6% reduction in initial investment compared to a strategy without interconnection.
