MENA COMPARED TO EUROPE: THE INFLUENCE OF LAND USE, NUCLEAR POWER, AND TRANSMISSION EXPANSION ON RENEWABLE ELECTRICITY SYSTEM COSTS

MENA compared to Europe: The influence of land use, nuclear power, and transmission expansion on renewable electricity system costs

Most studies that here examine CO2-neutral, or near CO2-neutral, power systems by using energy system models investigate Europe or the United States, while similar studies for other regions are rare.In this paper, we focus on the Middle East and North Africa (MENA), where weather conditions, especially for solar, differ substantially from those in
