energy capacity targets. Taiwan targets are set only until 2025 and were used as
such for the 2030 calculations.
The planned renewable energy capacity and generation in the APAC markets
falling in the research scope are provided in the table 5.4.
The case studies potential for renewable energy offer
The renewable energy technical potential is the theoretical maximum capacity
that can be installed with the current technology. This data is identified from
other sources than from the literature review. Based on the maximum technical
potential of each study cases, the author calculates the corresponding generation
using the same correction factors determined in the table 5.3.
