      abstract     = {Due to the increasing global importance of decarbonizing
                      human activities, especially the production of electricity,
                      the optimal deployment of renewable energy technologies will
                      play a crucial role in future energy systems. To accomplish
                      this, particular attention must be accorded to the
                      geospatial and temporal distribution of variable renewable
                      energy sources (VRES), such as wind and solar radiation, in
                      order to match electricity supply and demand. This study
                      presents a techno-economical assessment of four energy
                      technologies in the hypothetical context of Mexico in 2050,
                      namely: onshore and offshore wind turbines and open-field
                      and rooftop photovoltaics. A land eligibility analysis
                      incorporating physical, environmental, and sociopolitical
                      eligibility constraints and individual turbine and
                      photovoltaic park simulations, drawing on 39 years of
                      climate data, is performed for individual sites across the
                      country in an effort to determine the installable potential
                      and the associated levelized costs of electricity. The
                      results reveal that up to 54 PWh of renewable electricity
                      can be produced at a levelized cost of electricity of less
                      than 70 EUR·MWh−1. Around $91\%$ (49 PWh) of this
                      electricity would originate from 23 TW of open-field
                      photovoltaic parks that could occupy up to 578,000 km2 of
                      eligible land across the country. The remaining $9\%$ (4.8
                      PWh) could be produced by 1.9 TW of onshore wind
                      installations allocated to approximately 68,500 km2 of
                      eligible land that is almost fully adjacent to three
                      mountainous zones. The combination of rooftop photovoltaic
                      and offshore wind turbines accounts for a very small share
                      of less than $0.03\%$ of the overall techno-economical
                      potential.},
