Bi-objective optimal design of desalination plants considering the uncertainty of renewable energy sources by Carlos Ramírez-Ruiz, Carlos Felipe Valencia, Sergio Cabrales, Andrés Felipe Ramírez

“…An analysis about the use of the water tank as a natural battery compared with electricity storage proved that the battery bank was more effective for the PV-only system, while the water tank was more suitable in systems where the use of wind power is predominant. Furthermore, an analysis of the direct CO2 emissions of the fossil fuel configurations shows that the renewable solutions reduce emissions by over 150 tons-eq/y.…”

Jet Streams as Power Generating Electrical Energy in Libya by Abdelfatah H. Shibani

“…Scientists realized that winds near the Earth’s surface are too weak to provide a regular source of energy due to the presence of aerobic swirls and obstacles, which represent a source of ground friction being the cause of weakening wind power. Some consider that the Earth’s surface is a totally inappropriate place for investing wind energy. …”

Tidal Stream vs. Wind Energy: The Value of Cyclic Power When Combined with Short-Term Storage in Hybrid Systems by Daniel Coles, Athanasios Angeloudis, Zoe Goss, Jon Miles

“…Periods of high wind resource outlast those of high tidal resource, causing the battery to often remain fully charged and excess wind power to be curtailed. Consequently the wind hybrid system curtails 1.9 GWh/year, whilst the tidal turbine curtails 0.2 GWh/year. …”
