Abstract / Description of output

Great Britain has begun to implement significant modifications that are ought to change the national electricity generation. Adding a large amount of renewable capacity to the energy mix will impact different areas of energy use from the landscape used for installation to the electricity market. This study presents an approach to determine the optimal locations of renewable energy installation based on predictions of renewable expansion under consideration of grid constraints. The occurring cost are analysed with regard to the expansion cost and the impact on the wholesale electricity prices.
