The study indicates that the antenna at the University of Buea, Southwest region of Cameroon blessed with considerable annual average global solar radiation (4.37 kWh/m^2/day) and
Ávila, Evaluation of hydro-wind complementarity in the medium-term planning of electrical power systems by joint simulation of periodic streamflow and wind speed time series: A Brazilian
Researching integration of floating solar in offshore wind farms Our researchers have shown good complementarity between solar and wind resources around the year. Combining wind farms
In addition, by coupling to curtailment as an enabler, and related dispatch flexibility that comes with storage application, lower balancing capacity need was reported at higher penetration.
Installing solar power systems and wind power systems can help businesses and industrial facilities directly use electricity generated from clean energy sources. Moreover, the
Cameroon ''s renewable energy policy direction shifted dramatically during the past decade, with increased focus on solar, off-grid and mini-grid deployments, new research has
Additionally, dispersed wind systems show a promising smoothing effect, while less spatial complementarity is observed for solar-solar and solar-wind scenarios. The analysis
It allows leveraging climate-driven wind-solar complementarity to minimize the variability of their combined production In all European regions, optimal siting or sharing of
The last ten years has shown notable growth in the wind and solar energy industry in Cameroon thanks to increased investment into renewable sources proving to substantially

Decentralizing the energy governance structure The power sector in Cameroon operates a highly centralized governance structure, at the top of which is the Ministry of Energy (Njoh et al., 2019), led by a minister.
3.1. Cameroon energy supply/consumption The primary supply of energy in Cameroon comes from biofuels and waste (70.58%), followed by crude oil (20.17%), natural gas (5.34%), hydropower (3.90%), and other renewable sources (0.01%) like solar, geothermal, and wind.
The energy potentials in Cameroon are such that biomass resources are not evenly distributed across the country (huge biomass and hydro resources are concentrated in the southern part, while high wind and solar resources are in the Northern part); hence, there is a need for diversity in energy supply.
The renewable energy ambitions within the Cameroon NDCs anticipate power generation by 2035 from non-renewable large hydro (15,607 GWh), small hydro (2,579 GWh), wind energy (464 GWh), solar PV (1,345 GWh), biomass (1,611 GWh), and natural gas (1,882 GWh).
