Xiaoli s solar container communication station wind and solar complementarity

Do wind power and photovoltaic stations complement each other?

Typically, wind power and photovoltaic stations are situated at different locations, necessitating the study and analysis of wind speed-radiation complementarity across various regions. This study focuses on wind power stations and photovoltaic stations in Qinghai and Gansu provinces to explore their complementarity.

What is the complementary coefficient between wind power stations and photovoltaic stations?

Utilizing the clustering outcomes, we computed the complementary coefficient R between the wind speed of wind power stations and the radiation of photovoltaic stations, resulting in the following complementary coefficient matrix (Fig. 17.).

Can a wind-solar hybrid system improve complementarity?

In the case of wind-solar hybrid systems, it was found that Complementarity can be enhanced through the dispersion of wind farms but not for solar energy. However, when considering wind farms, the feasibility must consider the requirement for long-distance transmission lines in this scenario.

How is wind-photovoltaic complementarity modeled?

Joint wind and solar distributions were modeled with the Copula function. A coefficient quantifying wind-photovoltaic complementarity was established. Spatial and temporal patterns of wind-solar complementarity were investigated. Stronger wind-solar complementarity occurs in low-elevation plains.
