The Influence of Output Variability from Renewable Electricity Generation on Net Energy Calculations
One key approach to analyzing the feasibility of energy extraction and generation technologies is to understand the net energy they contribute to society. These analyses most commonly focus on a simple comparison of a source’s expected energy outputs to the required energy inputs, measured in the fo...
