Exploring the trilemma of cost-efficiency, landscape impact and regional equality in onshore wind expansion planning

Onshore wind development has historically focused on cost-efficiency, which may lead to uneven turbine distributions and public resistance due to landscape impacts. Using a multi-criteria planning approach, we show how onshore wind capacity targets can be achieved by 2050 in a cost-efficient, visual...
