تجزیه و تحلیل کمی از تاثیر نفوذ انرژی بادی بر قیمت برق در ایرلند

This work concludes that, due to the fact that imported UK gas powered generation is the main (48%) form of electricity generation in Ireland, the changes in Irish wholesale electricity prices are primarily determined by UK gas prices and that increases in wind penetration in recent years have not affected this relationship. This, and the presence of a minimum tariff received by producers, enables wind energy providers to compete on price, representing a sound commercial basis for investment in renewables, while continuing the trend of reduced, imported fossil fuel, dependence in Ireland.
