Financial benefits of renewables in South Africa in 2014: Actual diesel- and coal-fuel savings and avoided “unserved energy” from the first approximately 1.6 GW of wind and PV projects in a constrained South African power system
Financial benefits of renewables in South Africa in 2014: Actual diesel- and coal-fuel savings and avoided “unserved energy” from the first approximately 1.6 GW of wind and PV projects in a constrained South African power system
This study addressed the questions how much fuel costs the first 1 600 MW of wind & PV have saved during the year 2014 (by reducing utilisation of diesel-fired gas turbines & of the expensive part of the coal fleet) & how much of “unserved energy” they have avoided that would have been necessary without them.
