Hi Taylor,

I am a little bit confused about yield tab. It says that annual yield of renewable resources. I did not understand exactly what kind of parameter I needed.

Should I put technical potential of primary resources or primary resource reserves?.

For example, technical potential is 216 billion kWh and primar resources reserves is 129388 Gwh/year.

Thanks

Hi there,

The 'Yield' tab is similar to the 'Additions to Reserves' tab, but is intended for renewable (primary) resources. Yield describes the amount of primary energy available each year for a primary fuel such as hydro, wind or solar.

It's worth mentioning that although the units that are assigned to the Yield variable are those of energy only (i.e. GJ, kWh, etc.), the meaning of the variable implies that a 'per year' should be appended.

Hope this helps,

Taylor
