Abstract
Urban borders are expanding in cities, solar photovoltaic and wind energy are being used and decentralized more and more, while the electrification of transport systems is in permanent progress. Users trust more in the modernization of electrical systems giving rise to various applications. The efforts made by both the public and private sectors are isolated and are not framed within comprehensive planning. For this reason, cities must be fully planned and contemplated in their land use plans. This article presents a long-term roadmap for the comprehensive electrification of mobility. To achieve a proper approach, it is based on the EnergyPLAN tool that uses the concept of smart energy and determines the long-term scenarios, the case of study is for the City of Cuenca in Ecuador. It seeks to take advantage of the potential of renewable energies available in the territory, which are evaluated and provide the necessary energy to feed future decentralized transport systems with a view to 2050. The long-term results show that the energy mix would be composed of wind with 37.3%, followed by solar photovoltaic with 33.9% and hydroelectric with 25.4%. There are others technologies such as biomass that do not exceed 3.4%.
