Analysis of wind-solar complementary situation of China s solar container communication stations

Are wind and solar energy resources complementary in China?

The results reveal that wind energy and solar energy resources in China undergo large interannual fluctuations and show significant spatial heterogeneity. At the same time, according to the complementarity of wind and solar resources, over half of China’s regions are suitable for the complementary development of resources.

Is there a correlation between wind and solar energy in China?

By calculating the Kendall rank correlation coefficient between wind and solar energy in China, the study mapped the spatial distribution of wind-solar energy complementarity. Han et al. proposed a complementary evaluation framework for wind-solar-hydro multi-energy systems based on multi-criteria assessment and K-means clustering algorithms.

Are wind and solar energy resources expanding in China?

However, the expansion of these resources is constrained by their intermittency and the spatial and temporal distribution of wind and solar energy. This paper systematically reviews the evolution of wind and solar energy reserves, their development potential, and their current status in China from a geographical perspective.

What are the characteristics of wind and solar energy potential in China?

Wind and solar energy potential show similar characteristics in most parts of China, especially in the northern and southern parts of China. A few regions exhibit complementary characteristics, including the southeastern coastal areas and northeastern regions.
