This website contains a range of learning resources on Integrated Resource Planning (a methodology for least-cost planning by public utilities), including load forecasting, tariff policies, amd demand side management. It also includes exercises and case studies.
This report outlines how modern battery energy storage systems can be effectively deployed and alleviate the variability of renewables. It also includes a Power Purchase Agreement template that can serve as a practical tool to bring private sector investments in the power sector.
This report explores ways to identify and mitigate energy transition investment risks in the low- and middle-income countries, pointing out 1) that better energy planning can attract greater investment in renewable energy, 2) that sustainable fuels will play an important role in delivering the energy transition, and 3) that the social dimensions of the transition […]
This report examines the critical role of modeling for transmission planning for energy transitions.
This plan provides a comprehensive, forward-looking least-cost plan for the development of the country’s power sector, including both on-grid and off-grid.
This paper reports on the different storage techniques available on the market today and highlights the strengths and limitations of each system.
This report challenges the prevailing narrative that green hydrogen is primarily a product for export from renewable-rich and industry-poor countries; rather, it underscores green hydrogen’s potential as a catalyst for sustainable development within developing countries that can contribute to economic growth, environmental sustainability and social progress.
This report focuses on how green hydrogen and fuel cell technologies could be initially rolled out in developing countries by presenting a series of applications that could be initially deployed in some locations and later scaled up.
This article explores how system planning, and in particular assessments of system adequacy, will need to innovate and evolve to allow power systems to keep delivering secure and affordable electricity supply during energy transitions.
This paper presents a value chain approach to identify priority areas for developing national hydrogen strategies, focussing on emerging and developing economies.
