In this paper cold and thermal storage options via wind energy surplus are examined aiming to enable higher wind integration. A case study in Greece with an installed wind farm (WF) was investigated reviewing the possibilities for higher renewables integration using thermostatically controlled loads (TCLs), analysing thermal and cold storage possibilities according to the needs of the local municipalities. The basic aim is to describe the idea of an aggregated system with a number of residential freezers, in order the wind power to be stored in the residential cold stores aiming at maximizing the benefit to the grid, utility or cold store owner avoiding at the same time wind curtailment. In addition, for thermal storage, by calculating thermal losses of the building, ventilation losses and adding up internal thermal gains of the building the space heating needs can be calculated.

“…The present work examines photovoltaic grid-connected systems (PVGCSs), though it can be applied to other distributed generation (DG) technologies. The increase in the distributed-generation capacity means economic profits well as technical benefits [8][9][10]. In the case of overloaded grids, the proper inclusion of distributed generation would improve the load of the grid and limit the possibility of supply collapses [11][12][13].…”

A Design Alternative to Improve the Interconnection Capability of New Distributed-Generation Installations into Existing Griddle

et al. 2016

Most distributed-generation facilities are performed on pre-built distribution grids. The design conditions of these existing grids may limit the ability of new users to get a connection due to technical and/or cost constraints. This work proposes a simple solution, adjusted to the relevant regulations and embodied in a radial distribution grid of Spanish low voltage, to improve the interconnection of distributed generation, usually grid connected photovoltaic systems. The proposed solution, based on increasing the section of the neutral line, achieves a capacity of increasing the length of the supply grid by more than 20%.
