This paper evaluates the feasibility of integrating wind power plants with Power-to-Gas (P2G) technology using GIS and Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis (MCDA) in Poland. It applies the Analytic Hierarchy Process to identify optimal location…

R. Soto‐Valle, J. Usuba

This paper analyzes real operational data of wind energy curtailment in Chile (2022 and 2025). Installed capacity grew from 3.0 to 5.0 GW, while curtailment rose from 7% to 13%, totaling ~3.4 TWh of unused clean energy. Most curtailment occ…

B. Schuetze, E. Woertz

This paper explores triangular cooperation (TC) between the EU, GCC, and hydrocarbon-poor MENA countries for renewable energy and green hydrogen. It finds that while TC may enable renewable expansion, it risks deepening social, economic, an…
