Historical and future variability of wind and solar energies in Alberta and Ontario.
Wind and solar sources are important in the generation and supply of energy in a clean and renewable way. The potential for renewable energy generation in Canada is well-known and is projected to be a leading industry over the next years by power generation companies like TransAlta Corporation. The purpose of this project is to explore the climatic variability and drought occurrence of wind and solar energies in the provinces of Alberta and Ontario through historical data obtained from ERA5 datasets. This research will assist the decision-making of TransAlta in terms of exploration of the historical and current variation of renewable sources and diagnose the potential of projects managed by the company.
