摘要: A contentious debate is taking place over plans for a series of mega-dams under development in Malaysian Borneo. There little quantitative analysis the energy options or cost and benefit trade-offs public discussion literature. To fill this gap we developed model proposed system alternative scenarios using commercial market software PLEXOS. We prepared 15 year long-term capacity expansion state Sarawak which includes existing generation, resource operability constraints, direct indirect costs. explore range demand growth policy assumptions resulting generation mixes economic trade-offs. Our central finding that diversified mix including solar biomass waste resources can meet future at lower than additional dam construction.
