“…In Sub-Saharan Africa, researchers and students from Nigeria, Ghana, and Germany have been working since 2013 to design a new vehicle concept (the aCar project) that fulfills regional requirements [57]. Nigeria, Ghana, and Kenya were included in the case study since they have similar mobility gaps in rural areas and a suitable vehicle that meets all local requirements does not currently exist [57]. The result of the research and design process was a vehicle concept that meets the needs of the people living in rural areas of Sub-Saharan Africa by addressing the local challenges: poor road conditions, road safety, and the affordability of the vehicles.…”

Electric vehicles (EVs) represent an important socio-economic development opportunity for islands and remote locations because they can lead to reduced fuel imports, electricity storage, grid services, and environmental and health benefits. This paper presents an overview of opportunities, challenges, and examples of EVs in islands and remote power systems, and is meant to provide background to researchers, utilities, energy offices, and other stakeholders interested in the impacts of electrification of transportation. The impact of uncontrolled EV charging on the electric grid operation is discussed, as well as several mitigation strategies. Of particular importance in many islands and remote systems is taking advantage of local resources by combining renewable energy and EV charging. Policy and economic issues are presented, with emphasis on the need for an overarching energy policy to guide the strategies for EVs growth. The key conclusion of this paper is that an orderly transition to EVs, one that maximizes benefits while addressing the challenges, requires careful analysis and comprehensive planning.

“…Additionally, emission reduction initiatives in the mobility and heating sector lead to a growing electrical demand, by a growing number of heat pumps and electric vehicles in the lower levels of electrical energy supply systems (Valsomatzis et al 2014;Haakana et al 2018;Keiner et al 2019). This expanding of electricity demand can result in consumption peaks and amplifies the renewables-based fluctuation on the generation side, leading to imbalances and congestions in power grids (Valsomatzis et al 2015).…”

Choosing the right model for unified flexibility modeling

et al. 2022

Using aggregated flexibility from distributed small-scale power devices is an extensively discussed approach to meet the challenges in modern and increasingly stochastic energy systems. It is crucial to be able to model and map the flexibility of the respective power devices in a unified form to increase the value of the cumulative flexibility from different small-scale power devices by aggregation. In order to identify the most suitable approach for unified flexibility modeling we present a framework to evaluate and compare the advantages and disadvantages of already existing modeling approaches in different levels of detail. As an introduction to flexibility modeling and as a basis for the evaluation process we initially provide a comprehensive overview of the broad range of flexibility models described in scientific literature. Subsequently, five selected modeling approaches allowing the generation of a unified flexibility representation for different power devices are presented in detail. By using an evaluation metric we assess the suitability of the selected approaches for unified flexibility modeling and their applicability. To allow a more detailed performance analysis, the best evaluated models are implemented and simulations with different small-scale devices are performed. The results shown in this paper highlight the heterogeneity of modeling concepts deriving from the various interpretations of flexibility in scientific literature. Due to the varying complexity of the modeling approaches, different flexibility potentials are identified, necessitating a combination of approaches to capture the entire spectrum of the flexibility of different small-scale power devices. Furthermore, it is demonstrated that a complex model does not necessarily lead to the discovery of higher flexibility potentials, and recommendations are given on how to choose an appropriate model.

Os Sistemas Elétricos de Potência estão evoluindo de um modelo centralizado de geração para uma complexa infraestrutura com recursos energéticos distribuídos. As mudanças transformadoras são especialmente observadas no nível dos sistemas de distribuição, com o surgimento de novas tecnologias que afetam o perfil de consumo e geração própria dos clientes, o planejamento e as operações dos serviços públicos de distribuição de energia. Assim, o principal objetivo deste trabalho é apresentar uma nova ferramenta para análise de segurança em sistemas de distribuição com presença de recursos energéticos distribuídos. A ferramenta proposta irá auxiliar na operação, planejamento e gestão dos sistemas de distribuição e, consequentemente, na melhoria da qualidade dos serviços prestados pelas concessionárias de distribuição. Esta ferramenta é desenvolvida na linguagem Python e utiliza o programa OpenDSS como ferramenta de solução de fluxo de potência.
