Wind-solar complementarity strongly depends on temporal scale. The anticipated greater penetration of the variable renewable energies wind and solar in the future energy mix could be facilitated by exploiting their complementarity, thereby improving the balance between energy supply and demand.
Concerning other regions, the complementarity levels reach 40 % in the South, Southeast, and the remainder of the Northeast . Moreover, the Brazilian Northeast stands out as the country's most advantageous location for wind power generation.
Announcing the Kigali Communique at the Forum, Hon. Patricie Uwase, Rwanda’s Minister of State in the Ministry of Infrastructure, said, “Here in Kigali, ministers and senior officials agreed on the importance of articulating a collective position on a just and equitable energy transition In Africa.
Meanwhile, in order to eliminate the influence of the power station scale on complementary characteristics and facilitate the analysis of the complementarity between different renewable energies, the theoretical power generation of PV, WP, and HP is essential to be normalized.
However, less attention has been paid to quantify the level of complementarity of wind power, photovoltaic and hydropower. Therefore, this paper proposes a complementarity evaluation method for wind power, photovoltaic and hydropower by thoroughly examining the fluctuation of the independent and combined power generation.
The planning of their exploration should then be centrally coordinated at the national level. However, improvements in the exploitation of wind-solar complementarity must be accompanied by a massive improvement in the provision and use of energy storage systems.
