IPCC Asks HOMER Community for Input

[Peter Lilienthal]

The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change is interested in the potential for hybrid renewable power systems to mitigate climate change. Given the worldwide distribution and diversity of the HOMER user community they have asked us to collect peer-reviewed articles on hybrid power systems. Please upload any articles or links to articles that you are aware of to the HOMER user community here.

 

Please Type or Paste the reference or bibliographic description of the paper or a URL link in the Text Box below under "Reply to This".  If you have the paper as an electronic file, you can attach it after you click on "Upload Files" below.  Finally, be sure to click on the "Add Reply" button.

Peter,

Thanks for your reply. Here I list the articles which are about HOMER. However, because of the Download License, I cannot post the full-text one by one. Excuse me.
