Cost of Onshore Wind Land-Use Restrictions in Norway's Net-Zero Electricity System
A case study using a high-spatial-resolution electricity system optimization model to quantify how socio-environmental restrictions on onshore wind deployment change the cost and feasibility of Norway's 2030 net-zero power system. Students learn how land-use exclusion scenarios propagate through a capacity-expansion model into system cost, load shedding, and the trade-offs among wind deployment, transmission expansion, industrial electrification, and demand reduction.
