A presentation by the National Renewable Energy Center of Spain (CENER) at the IRENA GCC workshop. The workshop took place in June, 2013 and was hosted by the Kuwait Institute for Scientific Research.
What does the future look like? Is it a dark space where we’re suffering from varying degrees of techamphetamine or are we heading towards a Utopian fantasy of abundance and harmony?
Understanding that our basic human needs and wants barely change, we explore the future state of a range of topics; from our need for physical sustenance through to our age-long fascination of transcending the limitations of our biology.
Looking at the future from a human perspective, our potential for greatness is teetering on a fine line between darkness and hope. We’re banking on the latter.

One of the key activities in IRENA is the development of renewable readiness assessments (RRAs). An RRA is a holistic assessment of conditions for renewable energy deployment in a country, and the actions necessary to further improve these conditions. An RRA is a rapid assessment of how a country can increase readiness and overcome the main barriers to the deployment of renewable energy technologies. It covers all services (transport, heat, electricity and motive power), and sources of renewable energy, with countries selecting those of relevance. The RRA comprises a process and a methodology that includes completing a set of templates and a final report. On the occasion of the RRA Mauritania, the Global Atlas was presented, as a potential supplier of data, data infrstructure and education for zoning renewable energy hotspots.

This morning, It’s the Global wind map obtained from the MERRA dataset. The map can be used to have an overview of the wind resources across several regions around the world. However for detailed site specific assessments, maps of higher resolution should be used. You can access this map through: http://irena.masdar.ac.ae/?map=399
Saudi Arabia solar map shows GHI and DNI over Saudi Arabia with several areas of high potential. In this map, you would also find several other ancillary data layers such as, protected areas, hydrography grid, slope etc. This map was created by the German Aerospace Center (DLR) for educational purposes only. It shows an example of identification of solar opportunity areas based on exclusion criteria. The base solar dataset was developed by NREL for the SWERA programme (UNEP). The user can activate the various filters and view the remaining zones.
Access the maps through: http://irena.masdar.ac.ae/?map=179
Did you know that Australia has very good potential for Solar PV? This map shows the diffuse solar radiation over Australia. The map has been shared by the Australian Bureau of Meteorology. Access the map through: http://irena.masdar.ac.ae/?map=406
Then South Africa! The map shows the wind resources in South Africa shared by the Wind Atlas for South Africa (WASA) project. The map shows several areas with high potential for wind deployment. You would find several other ancillary data layers such as transmission grids, protected areas, elevation etc. Access the maps through http://irena.masdar.ac.ae/?map=405
It is Yemen today! The map shows the direct and diffused solar irradiation (DNI and GHI) over Yemen. The solar atlases have been shared by NREL and MINES Paris Tech (Helioclim-1 database) respectively and the wind atlases, by Sander + Partners (MERRA Dataset) and VORTEX. Access the map through: http://irena.masdar.ac.ae/?map=324
Next for the day is Papua New Guinea! The map shows wind speeds at 50m height over the Pacific island country. In this map you would also find layers on protected areas, topography, land-cover, and population density per kilometer. The wind map covering Papua New Guinea is shared from the MERRA dataset by Sander+Partners. The layers on protected areas and population density have been shared by UNEP and Oakridge National Laboratory (ORNL) respectively Access the map through: http://irena.masdar.ac.ae/?map=324
We start with Sudan! The map shows the direct and diffused solar irradiation (DNI and GHI) over the Sudanese territory. It also shows wind resources over the Eastern, Central and Southern parts of Sudan. The transmission grid network for the country is also included in the map. The solar and wind atlases have been shared by NREL and VORTEX respectively and the transmission grid maps by the World bank AICD project. Access the map through: http://irena.masdar.ac.ae/?map=321
Would you like to see how countries used resource maps for policy and project development? On the Global Atlas website, 10 of the participating countries have shared case studies describing the effectiveness of resource maps in future planning.
