Sources of Primary Electricity Supply

Michael Lehning, Annelen Kahl, Aleksandra Kim

This synthesis report provides an overview of primary electricity supply sources, including power generation potentials and costs as well as the as- sociated environmental burdens of electricity pro- duction in Switzerland. It gives a synthesis of the main ...

SWEET-EDGE: Enabling Decentralized renewable Generation in the Alps

Michael Lehning, Jérôme François Sylvain Dujardin, Annelen Kahl

The overall EDGE objective is to fast-track the growth of locally-sourced decentralized renewable energy in Switzerland and to ensure that by 2035 and 2050, when ambitious shares of renewable energy are reached, the Swiss energy system is designed and oper ...

Optimized market value of alpine solar photovoltaic installations

Jérôme François Sylvain Dujardin, Annelen Kahl

Solar photovoltaic (PV) is the most rapidly expanding renewable resource worldwide. Yet, its full potential may be hindered by mismatches with market demand and correlated production profiles. In this research, we explore a case study of innovative PV plac ...

Forward scattering of snow as a factor in local surface energy balance and winter PV production

Michael Lehning, Annelen Kahl

Because of its high albedo, snow changes the surface energy balance very signiKcantly and this introduces a strong positive feed-back loop with the local climate. In complex, mountainous terrain, the high albedo causes shortwave solar radiation to be reQec ...

With large parts of the world moving toward renewable energies, there is an urgent need to organize this large-scale transition effectively. This paper presents a new methodology to guide the planning and siting of renewable electricity generation for coun ...

IOP PUBLISHING LTD2021

Rough terrain in mid- and high latitudes is often covered with highly reflective snow, giving rise to a very complex transfer of incident sunlight. In order to simplify the radiative transfer in weather and climate models, snow is generally treated as an i ...

Floating PV in mountain artificial lakes: a checklist for site assessment

Annelen Kahl

Floating photovoltaics is a emerging approach to deploy photovoltaics on water bodies. Thanks to its high overall global potential and the extensive experience gained (with more than 2 GWp installed and than 510 plants, up to 2020), it represents a promisi ...

100% renewable – 100% doable

Michael Lehning, Jérôme François Sylvain Dujardin, Annelen Kahl

The knowledge that wind power is very productive in winter and that photovoltaic (PV) installations can produce more electricity in alpine environments than in the valleys is not completely new. Yet these insights have remained little appreciated or acted ...

The bright side of PV production in snow-covered mountains

Michael Lehning, Jérôme François Sylvain Dujardin, Annelen Kahl

Our work explores the prospect of bringing the temporal production profile of solar photovoltaics (PV) into better correlation with typical electricity consumption patterns in the midlatitudes. To do so, we quantify the potential of three choices for PV in ...
