Abstract
In order to battle climate change, net zero emissions have to be reached by 2050 according to European directives, involving an important energy transition from fossil fuels to renewable energy sources. This project has the initial objective of studying the current energy utilization in Catalonia, demonstrating that energy transition is an urgent matter to be done here. Afterwards, power plants solutions based on renewable energy sources (concretely, wind energy and photovoltaic energy) are proposed to be implemented throughout Catalonia according to its own policies for the 2021-2030 decade. In this way, relevant guidance about renewable energy sources is provided, which can be useful for similar studies. The energy utilization research has been done with the analytical method, going from the whole idea to its elemental terms and studying each one of them specifically. Regarding the solution development, when deciding the locations where implement a solution, the main criterion is to consider first the ones with higher potential, considering always the source availability. Furthermore, additional criteria have been considered to avoid massive concentration of solutions. The calculation procedures of the solutions are explained in details. Finally, the results show that it will be possible but very challenging for Catalonia to comply with energy transition policies because of the very slow pace of this transition during the last past years. Consequently, the deployment of power plants based on renewable energy sources and its costs involved will be huge during the next years. The 2021-2030 decade has to be taken as an opportunity for changing the energy system and adapting it to the requirements of the future
