Abstract

Due to the increase in demand for electricity, global warming and energy sustainability, there has been a significant increase in the use of renewable energy technologies. This can be seen in reports from the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA), which in 2018 reported a total world electricity generation capacity of 2,356,346 MW with technologies based on these energy sources. These data constitute a sustained annual growth over the last five years of between 8 and 9 % (IRENA, 2019, p. 2). Therefore, the use of these technologies is a strategy adopted worldwide to reduce both the dependence on fossil fuels and the environmental impact of electricity generation.
