Whole-system approach:
"The locations of #RenewableEnergy facilities in a lowest-cost energy system are different than those identified by the typical approach of maximizing annual energy production, the researchers report.
The model suggests that in New England, wind power facilities should be located not necessarily in the windiest places overall, but in places that are reliably windy at night, when solar power is unavailable."
