Mitigating Climate Risk to China's Renewable Energy Generation by Power Plants Redeployment Using a Machine‐Learning Model by Lin Lv, Miaomiao Liu, Yuli Shan, Jinghang Xu, Jianxun Yang, Wen Fang, Zongwei Ma, Jun Bi

“…However, designing deployment strategies is complicated by the lack of plant‐level response between power generation and climate variables with the constraint of economic and social factors. Here, we develop three random‐forest (RF) response models that accurately capture the nonlinear relationship between renewable energy generation (hydro, solar, and wind power) and climate parameters at the plant level, using a 17‐year historical data set. …”
