The purpose of this study was to design and evaluate an optimal energy supply system for the isolated island, Gasado, with microgrid technology. Simulation of a renewable energy power system, including energy storage (an energy storage system -ESS), economic analysis, and evaluation of external CO 2 costs, was conducted for Gasado. The results showed that a renewable power system, supplied with ESS, was the best option, considering climatic conditions, and the load pattern for the target area.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
