Solar and Wind energy resources were estimated from data mostly from NREL (2015), with additional information from WEC (2013) and NREL (2015b, 2015c), especially for cost estimation.
For solar resource the supply curve introduced in the model was based on solar radiance itself, instead of on electricity or power. Additionally, in this model resources are split in four steps of increasing capacity factor.
For wind resources the capacity factor is split in offshore and onshore and the distance to major consumers and to the coastline are considered. This is important to generate better supply curves for energy resources, since the optimum decision from the model may be to use a lower capacity factor that is closer to the end consumer, depending on the costs associated
In the COFFEE model, wind resource was estimated considering 12 step curves for and 27 step discrete curves were created combining capacity factor, distance to shore and water depth for onshore and offshore, respectively.
