Modelling and simulation of a distributed power generation system with energy storage to meet dynamic household electricity demand

Pumped storage-based standalone photovoltaic power generation system: Modeling and techno-economic optimization

“…After deducting the inverter conversion losses, the daily average PV power generation is 431.1 kW h/day, which can be further divided into three parts based on the PV energy balance model in Eq. (9). About 31.4% of the total PV output is used to supply the end-users directly, and 56.4% is transferred to the pump/ motor unit, meaning that in daily average 990 m 3 water is elevated from the lower reservoir to the upper one for storage.…”

“…There are various energy storage technologies currently in use for distributed renewable energy integration, such as battery [2,3], flywheel [4,5], compressed air [6], fuel cell [7,8], Supercapacitor [9,10], and pumped hydro [11,12].

Special issue: Sustainable thermal energy management in the process industries international conference (SusTEM2011)

“…Based on experimental results and simulation studies using Dymola, Wang et al [17] investigate a distributed power generation system which integrates an electrical energy storage system and concludes that the system can be utilised to meet household energy demands. Huang et al [18] focusses on modelling and techno-economic analysis of a small scale biomass combined heat and power (CHP)/trigeneration system integrating an organic Rankine cycle (ORC) to recover waste heat.…”

Optimization of renewable power system for a household in the UK

“…Respect to the unpredictable and intermittent natures of renewable energy sources, hybrid renewable energy systems which terms to the incorporation of several renewable energy generations prevalently the combination of wind turbines (WT) and solar PV panels due to the complementary distribution throughout the year with energy storage systems (ESS) are highly favored and studied to provide the more stable and efficient energy supply [7]. It has been demonstrated that HRES possess higher class supply, better performance and more compact requirement for the storage capacity than single wind power systems or PV systems.…”
