Organization

� CIEMAT is a reference centre in Energy, Environment and Technology Research in Spain, as well as the Spanish International Reference in these areas.

� CIEMAT works in R+D+i of energy resources: clean coal combustion, CIEMAT works in R+D+i of energy resources: clean coal combustion, nuclear power, fusion, wind power, solar energy, biomass and biofuels.

� CIEMAT is a public research institution depending of Innovation and Science Ministry of Spain



Objective

� To identify IntiGIS as a constantly evolving tool

� To present modification of wind-diesel technology algorithm.

Which are the main questions?

The tool

Which are the main questions?

� What is the most competitive technology on the base of LEC?

� If the parameter values change, what is the difference among technologies related to competitiveness ?

The tool

� Which elements does IntiGIS need to work?

� Maps

� Economic parameters

� Technic parameters

� How does IntiGIS work?

� It calculates demand per pixel

� It calculates the LEC per technology and per pixel

� It compares the LEC per pixel

� It does sensibility analysis



The tool

� Results

� The most competitive technology

�Maps

� Reports

� Tables and Graphics



� New version

� Redefinition of the wind-diesel hybrid technology algorithm using IntiGIS

methodology.

� The model is more accurate estimating the wind capacity factor

The tool

� The system has a new renewable fraction function that it’s better to supply the demand

with wind energy, reducing the energy diesel generation

� More competitive and realistic. The user enters the value of the investment
