Assessment of the wind power density over South America simulated by CMIP6 models in the present and future climate

Abstract: Expanding the South American renewable energy matrix to ensure more sustainable socio-economic development, mitigate the climate change effects, and meet the targets set in the Paris Agreement is crucial. Hence, this study sought to estimate South America’s wind speed and wind power density alterations projected by eight global climate models (GCMs) from Coupled Model Intercomparison Project – Phase 6 (CMIP6). To this end, we applied statistical downscaling and bias correction to the GCMs outputs through the Q… Show more

“…The models were selected in January 2022 under the R&D project 00403-0054/2022. As described in Ferreira et al [48,49], the performance of 50 CMIP6-GCMs in representing the mean state of the SA climate was analyzed with the methodology of ranking analysis [50]. Monthly data (from 1995 to 2014) of air temperature at 2 m and precipitation of these models were used.…”

“…As the BCSD methodology is described in Ferreira et al [48,49], here we provide only a summary. For obtaining a dataset with an intermediate horizontal resolution, initially, the daily precipitation from CMIP6-GCMs is spatially disaggregated, i.e., remapped to a grid of 0.5 • × 0.5 • , which is the same as that from the reference dataset (CPC), as mentioned in the previous section.…”
