   Abstract : This study aims to identify and quantify (1) how Typical Meteorological Year (TMY)-based power systems perform when exposed to atypical variability and (2) how TMY-centric power system design differs from full variability design. A simplified least cost power system planning model, including a novel performance analysis formulation, is proposed and tested for Guinea-Bissau and Turkey, covering both main Variable Renewable Energy (VRE) technologies, solar PV and wind turbines.
