Adding detailed transmission constraints to a long-term integrated assessment model – A case study for Brazil using the TIMES model
TL;DR: The recently developed TIMES-Brazil optimisation model is used to study the role of transmission bottlenecks in cost-effective long-term deployment of wind and solar power in the Brazilian energy system up to 2050 and finds that a more detailed transmission infrastructure significantly affects capacity deployments and electricity prices.
Journal ArticleDOI
Selecting and assessing sustainable CDM projects using multi-criteria methods
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors developed a tool for prioritizing, within a given group, and once a specific list of sustainable development criteria is agreed upon and given, the proposed CDM projects from this sustainable development point of view.
