Modeling and Assessment of Wind and Insolation Resources with a Focus on Their Complementary Nature: A Case Study of Oklahoma

摘要: Energy in wind and incoming solar radiation has been observed to be complementary over time. That is, as one of these resources slackens, the other tends increase. Considering intermittency radiation, complementarity provides potential better exploit two combination. How well a hybrid system using both can improve reliability energy generation is partially function their complementarity. This study developed an approach calculate Complementarity Index Wind Solar Radiation (CIWS). Geographic analyses including principal component analysis geographically weighted regression modeling were applied investigate impacts diverse geographic factors on Oklahoma was used case area because availability quality-controlled five-minute data from 127 Mesonet sites. The results indicate average CIWS (unitless) 10.99, about 46 percent theoretical maximum value 24; stand...
