In this work we investigate potential solar feasibility in Greenland using the village of Qaanaaq, Greenland as a case study to demonstrate several optimized energy scenarios. 1.1. Alternative energy in the arctic Both wind turbines and solar photovoltaic (PV) are mature technologies.
Solar power is not widely used in the far north of Greenland. Therefore, there is little comparison for costs of panels, transportation, and installation. In Sarfannguit, Greenland, PV prices were estimated at 2800 USD/kW in 2014 . In the Canadian Arctic, panel price estimates have exceeded 5000 USD/kW in 2019 and 2020 , .
Generally, high fuel prices allow for greater solar installations and thus fuel savings under an economic minimization model. The low costs of fuels in Greenland make it challenging for renewables to become cost-competitive in the analysis.
Even without a change in the one-price model, government investment in solar energy for communities around Greenland will lower Nukissiorfiit’s dependence on fossil fuel which would help to reduce the associated large ongoing deficits incurred by Nukissiorfiit . Table 8. Annual cost savings in USD/ Year for Solar–BES–diesel hybrid scenarios.
Alternative energy in the arctic Both wind turbines and solar photovoltaic (PV) are mature technologies. Despite being mature, use of solar PV in Greenland on a community scale is limited.
Fuel costs in Greenland are determined by an agreement between a fuel wholesaler, PolarOil, and the Government. Fuel is bought in bulk on a yearly basis and stored in local deposits to ensure price stability. The fuel price is fixed for all localities to ensure equity.
