“…Reference [27] described CAES modelling under discharging mode as the ratio of energy generated to energy consumed from compressed air by a factor of K A . CAES has a long life span and large power capacity and requires low investment and operational costs [28]. However, similar to PHES, CAES is limited to certain geographical areas [3].…”

Abstract:Research has found an extensive potential for utilizing energy storage within the power system sector to improve reliability. This study aims to provide a critical and systematic review of the reliability impacts of energy storage systems in this sector. The systematic literature review (SLR) is based on peer-reviewed papers published between 1996 and early 2018. Firstly, findings reveal that energy storage utilization in power systems is significant in improving system reliability and minimizing costs of transmission upgrades. Secondly, introduction of policies to shift from the use of fossil fuels to that of renewable energy positively affects energy storage system development. Thirdly, North America is an early pioneer of power system reliability and energy storage system studies. However, Asia has recently taken over the role, with China being the main driver. Research gaps within this field are also identified. This review can serve as basis for scholars in advancing the theoretical understanding of the reliability impacts of energy storage systems and in addressing the gaps within this field.

“…Many studies have investigated the allocations of DGs including REs and ESSs in transmissions systems [1][2][3], but these studies did not consider contingencies. In Ref [1], the authors formulated a problem to determine the allocation and scheduling of ESSs by employing a bi-level programming problem, and in Ref [2], the stochastic framework to enhance reliability and operability was proposed considering both power shortages and surpluses.…”

There is a growing need to connect renewable energy systems (REs), such as photovoltaic systems (PVs), to the power grid for solving environmental problems such as global warming. However, an electricity grid with RE is vulnerable to problems of power shortage and surplus owing to the uncertainty of RE outputs and grid failures. Energy storage systems (ESSs) can be used to solve supply reliability problems, but their installation should be minimized considering their high costs. This study proposes a method to optimize the allocations of PVs and ESSs based on vulnerability analysis, and utilizes our proposed concept of "slow" and "fast" ESSs, which can reflect the influences of both uncertainties: PV outputs and grid failures. Accordingly, this paper demonstrates an optimal allocation of PVs and ESSs that minimizes the amount of ESSs while satisfying the PV installation target and the constraints on supply reliability indices for power shortage and power surplus in the event of a grid failure.

“…In the last decade, there has been a growing emphasis on developing suitable and affordable technologies to meet the challenges of remote and rural settlements [2,3], such as: hybrid renewable power generation and storage systems [4], and the micro-grid concept. These viable solution alternatives can provide an effective method of electric power generation to alleviate the energy scarcity experienced by isolated and low-income communities.…”

Abstract:The government of Namibia has committed itself to promote the use of economically viable RE (renewable energy) technologies, as a complement to grid electrification, and to improve energy provision to rural areas. This paper presents the implementation of the Benguela Community-UNAM Wind-Power Demonstration Project, which is a community-run wind-power mini-generation pilot plant in Luderitz, Namibia. Luderitz is located in South-Western Namibia along the Namib Desert. The region experiences abundant south-westerly winds and the coastal weather conditions make it a suitable location for wind energy. This project is an initiative from the community of Luderitz and a first of its kind in Namibia. It demonstrates the application of small-scale wind energy systems in Namibia and contributes to the growing national awareness of RE and use of wind power in the country. Through its activities, the project has created a dialogue between the local authorities, business community, schools and the greater community. The balance of the paper discusses lessons learned; envisaged future development plans; highlights technical, administrative and management activities; as well as potential for replication and barriers encountered during the project implementation including institutional constraints. The solution-methods developed are presented and discussed.
