Abstract EN
This paper investigates the costs that car he avoided by using wind energy in the control coastal area of Libya.
the investigation of the capacity credit was performed in a previous work.
The analysis included fuel saving, capacity saving and emission reduction (NO2)„ SO2: and CO2) to the atmosphere.
The avoided costs were translated into equivalent energy costs of wind energy systems.The evaluation was conducted using the reliability (lOl P> analysis and the contribution of windsystem during peak demand to the utility total electricity generation system.
The calculations werecarried out using WASP (wien Automatic System Planning Package) for the proposed paned of 2009-2019 where wind power installation would increase from 100 MW in 2009 to 500 MW in 2019.
p l he results showed that the avoided costs of wind energy will increase from 24 cksm h in 2009 to 8 6 c kWh in 2019 the mean value of the avoided costs of wind energy over the 10-year period is6ck\Wh, which would make wind power economically competitive with conventional power plants in LibyaFurther investigations of detailed external costs of all energy systems in the national energy mix.
as well as ’.he feed in tariff, are recommended and should be introduced to the national energy sectors in order to promote implementation of wind energy and other renewable energy technologies.
