Battery energy storage systems (BESS) and renewable energy sources are complementary technologies from the power system viewpoint, where renewable energy sources behave as flexibility sinks and create business opportunities for BESS as flexibility sources. Various stakeholders can use BESS to balance, stabilize and flatten demand/generation patterns. These applications depend on the stakeholder role, flexibility service needed from the battery, market opportunities and obstacles, as well as regulatory aspects encouraging or hindering integration of storage technologies. While developed countries are quickly removing barriers and increasing the integration share of BESS, this is seldom the case in developing countries. The paper identifies multiple case opportunities for different power system stakeholders in Croatia, models potential BESS applications using real-world case studies, analyzes feasibility of these investments, and discusses financial returns and barriers to overcome.

Abstract The application of renewable energy sources poses the problems connected with output volatility. In order to decrease this effect the energy storage technologies can be applied, particularly fuel cells connected with hydrogen storage. In this paper the application of SOFC system for a household in Poland is proposed. Economic and technical analysis is performed. It was found that the proposed installation is profitable after 25 years of operation when compared with conventional solution - heat pumps and gas-fired boilers

Renewable energy sources (RESs) such as wind and solar are frequently hit by fluctuations due to, for example, insufficient wind or sunshine. Energy storage technologies (ESTs) mitigate the problem by storing excess energy generated and then making it accessible on demand. While there are various EST studies, the literature remains isolated and dated. The comparison of the characteristics of ESTs and their potential applications is also short. This paper fills this gap. Using selected criteria, it identifies key ESTs and provides an updated review of the literature on ESTs and their application potential to the renewable energy sector. The critical review shows a high potential application for Li-ion batteries and most fit to mitigate the fluctuation of RESs in utility grid integration sector. However, for Li-ion batteries to be fully adopted in the RESs utility grid integration, their cost needs to be reduced.

The Given

Integration of renewable energy sources (RES) in a distribution network facilities the establishment of sustainable power systems. Concurrently, the incorporation of energy storage system (ESS) plays a pivotal role to maintain the economical significance as well as mitigates the technical liabilities associated with uncontrollable and fluctuating renewable output power. Nevertheless, ESS technologies require additional investments that imposes a techno-economic challenge of selection, allocation and sizing to ensure a reliable power system that is operationally optimized with reduced cost. In this paper, a deterministic cost-optimization framework is presented based on a multi-input nonlinear programming to optimally solve the sizing and allocation problem. The optimization is performed to obviate the demand-generation mismatch, that is violated with the introduction of variable renewable energy sources. The proposed optimization method is tested and validated on an IEEE 24-bus network integrated with solar and wind energy sources. The deterministic approach is solved using GAMS optimization software considering the system data of one year. Based on the optimization framework, the study also presents various different scenarios of renewable energy mix in combination with advanced ESS technologies to outline an technical as well as economical framework for ESS sizing, allocation, and selection. Based on the optimal results obtained, the optimal sizing and allocation were obtained for lead-acid, lithium-ion, nickel-cadmium and sodium-sulfur (NaS) battery energy storage system. While all these storage technologies mitigated the demand-generation mismatch with optimal size and location. However, the NaS storage technology was found to be the best among the given storage technologies for the given system minimum possible cost. Furthermore, it was observed that the cost of hybrid wind-solar mix system results in the lowest overall cost.

Hybrid Renewable Energy System

The current paper presents an energy storage system that stores the excessive energy, provided by a hybrid system of renewable energy sources, in the form of compressed air and thermal heat. Using energy storage systems together with renewable energy sources represents a major challenge that could ensure the transition to a viable economic future and a decarbonized economy. Thermodynamic calculations are conducted to investigate the performance of such systems by using Matlab simulation tools. The results indicate the values of primary and global efficiencies for various operating scenarios for the energy storage systems which use compressed air as medium storage, and shows that these could be very effective systems, proving the possibility to supply to the final user three types of energy: electricity, heat and cold function of his needs.
