Abstract

The city of Dakar, in Senegal, is endowed with solar photovoltaic, waste-to-energy, and wind energy resources that could support the transition to energy sustainability in the production of electricity for the interconnected grid. Ordinarily, energy planners use modelling software to simulate the integration of this potential into the electricity generation network. In 2018, Ringkjøb et al. identified 75 energy modelling software. The study simulates the integration of the city renewable energy potential in the electricity generation network, using three energy planning software. The main finding is the approach, which is embedded in the software programming interface, affects the model results in terms of competitiveness of renewable energy technologies when compared to existing energy technologies.
