Productive Use Report – Evaluation of solar-powered agricultural technologies for productive-use applications: A modelling approach

This report uses economic modelling to investigate the viability of ten different productive use applications of solar power in agriculture (oil extraction, maize shelling, rice hulling, fruit juice making, sugar cane juicing, fruit drying, flour milling, peanut shelling and coffee pulping). It investigates each technology in detail and then calculates the profits and other benefits […]

   

Sector Coupling in Facilitating Integration of Variable Renewable Energy in Cities

This report highlights the importance of sector coupling as a key source of flexibility that cities can explore to stabilise power grid operations when integrating high shares of variable renewable energy sources. It presents a range of sector coupling opportunities available for use in cities, including self-consumption of variable RE sources, the role of thermal […]
