A global renewable energy scenario

Bent Sorensen, Peter Meibom

International Journal of Global Energy Issues, 2000, vol. 13, issue 1/2/3, -

Abstract: The scenario method is used to investigate whether or not an energy supply system entirely based upon renewable energy sources (solar radiation, wind, biomass, environmental heat and hydro) can supply the energy globally required by the mid-21st century. A geographical information system (GIS) is employed to assess the spatial match between supply and demand, and the robustness of the scenario against changes in assumptions is discussed.
