“…RETScreen was developed to evaluate energy production, life-cycle costs, and the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions of various types of renewable energy systems [32][33][34][35][36]. In RETScreen, the performance of different types of renewable energy sources, including wind power [37,38], hydro power [39,40], PV [41][42][43], combined heat and power (CHP) [35], bio energy [44,45], solar heating [33,[46][47][48], and geothermal heating and cooling [49], can be evaluated. RETScreen allows users to compare the economic performance of conventional systems and RES alternative systems for optimal design.…”
