Distributed generation from wind and solar acts on regional electric demand as a reduced consumption, giving rise to a ``load shadowing effect''. The net load becomes much more difficult to predict due to its dependence on the meteorological …
The development of successful climate services faces a number of challenges, including the identification of the target audience and their needs and requirements, and the effective communication of complex climate information, through engagement with …
Solar photovoltaic energy is widespread worldwide and particularly in Europe, which became in 2016 the first region in the world to pass the 100 GW of installed capacity. As with all the renewable energy sources, for an effective management of solar …
We demonstrate the current levels of skill for seasonal forecasts of wind and irradiance in Europe, using forecast systems available from the Copernicus Climate Change Service (C3S). While skill is patchy, there is potential for the development of …
The increased penetration of photovoltaic power introduces new challenges for the stability of the electrical grid, both at the local and national level. Many different effects are caused by high solar power injection into the electric grid. Among …
