CELESTINO, Vivian  y  JULIAO, Rui. Conceptual modeling to identify areas with potential for energy generation by renewable source. GOT [online]. 2016, n.9, pp.65-89. ISSN 2182-1267.  https://doi.org/10.17127/got/2016.9.004.

The world faces a challenge in finding alternatives to meet the electricity demand in a sustainable way and reduce the greenhouse gases effects. A way to minimize these effects and expand the generating capacity is to increase production using renewable sources. But to make an assertive decision when installing a new power plant it is necessary to compile a set of variables that are relevant to the business and geographic space. The objective of this paper is to present an object conceptual model (according to the OMT-G standard) to identify potential areas for generating electricity from renewable sources.

Palabras clave : renewable energy; Geographic Information System (GIS); conceptual modeling; OMT-G.
