Energy potential from residual biomass towards meeting the EU renewable energy and climate targets: the Italian case / Paiano, Annarita; Lagioia, Giovanni   Journal Article
Paiano, Annarita Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Summary/Abstract The biomass sector has a strategic role in energy renewables policy, according to the National Renewable Energy Action Plans (NREAPs), elaborated in compliance with the Directive 2009/28/EC. Planning a suitable use of biomass for energy purposes call for the clear definition of the biomass potential, that has to be periodically updated by inventories for all EU countries.

Spatially explicit assessment of the wind energy potential in response to an increased distance between wind turbines and settle / Masurowski, Frank; Drechsler, Martin ; Frank, Karin   Journal Article
Masurowski, Frank Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Summary/Abstract Setting a minimum distance between wind turbines and settlements is an important policy to mitigate the conflict between renewable energy production and the well-being of residents. We present a novel approach to assess the impact of varying minimum distances on the wind energy potential of a region, state or country. We show that this impact can be predicted from the spatial structure of the settlements. Applying this approach to Germany, we identify those regions where the energy potential very sensitively reacts to a change in the minimum distance. In relative terms the reduction of the energy potential is maximal in the north-west and the south-east of Germany. In absolute terms it is maximal in the north. This information helps deciding in which regions the minimum distance may be increased without large losses in the energy potential.
