Integrating variable and non-dispatchable renewable power generation into existing power
systems will have consequences for their operation and future expansion. These impacts …

Over recent decades, the exploitation of wave energy resources has sparked a wide range
of technologies dedicated to capturing the available power with maximum efficiency …

As many other small islands and archipelagos, the Canary Islands depend to a high degree
on energy imports. Despite its small surface, the archipelago has a high potential for …

Insular electricity grids are considered to have a more fragile structure than the mainland
ones due to several factors such as the lower inertia because of lower number of generation …

This paper reviews the production and consumption of traditional and renewable energy in
Spain over the past two decades. It also presents an overview on the development of …

A numerical study of the wave energy distribution around Canary Islands is presented. For
this study the WAVEWATCH III model is used to generate waves for the entire North Atlantic …

An assessment of wave power resource for Portugal continental coast is presented, using
thirty three years (1979–2012) of wave hindcast. The hindcast system is based in two …

In the present paper a hindcast system is applied to the analysis of the Atlantic European
coast as a whole with specific nestings for sites of interest in each country. The areas …

In this study, a long-term assessment of the wave energy resource potential for the
Australian southeast shelf is performed from deep to shallow water, based on a 31-year …

We investigate the wave energy potential in the Caribbean Sea using a 30-year wave
hindcast. Wave energy in enclosed sea basins, such as the Gulf of Mexico and the …
