Data for: The Future of European Onshore Wind Energy Potential: Detailed Distribution and Simulation of Advanced Turbine Designs
Listed in Teesside University Research Data Repository
This dataset contains the potential onshore wind turbine installation sites identified in "The Future of European Onshore Wind Energy Potential: Detailed Distribution and Simulation of Advanced Turbine Designs".
Description
These placements were found following a land eligibility analysis which ensures that the placed turbines avoid ineligible locations such as being too near to settlement areas or within protected conservation zones.
Explicit locations of futuristic turbines designs are then identified within the eligible areas via an explicit placement algorithm, after which hourly electricity generation simulation is performed for all locations over a 37 year time frame. In the final stage, an economic evaluation is performed to estimate the levelized cost of electricity for each potential location. In total, 3.4 million locations are found amounting to a technical capacity potential of 13.4 TW with a total average annual generation potential of 34.3 PWh.
