Sizing and operation of pumped hydro storage for isolated microgrids

A stochastic model for the daily coordination of pumped storage hydro plants and wind power plants

We propose a stochastic model for the daily operation scheduling of a generation system including pumped storage hydro plants and wind power plants, where the uncertainty is represented by the hourly wind power production. In order to assess the value of the stochastic modeling, we discuss two case studies: in the former the scenario tree is built so as to include both low and high wind power p...

Modeling Strategic Electricity Storage: The Case of Pumped Hydro Storage in Germany

Feasibility Study of Pumped Hydro Energy Storage for Ramea Wind-Diesel Hybrid Power System

Distributed Renewable Generation and Storage System Sizing Based on Smart Dispatch of Microgrids

Abstract: This paper considers the contribution of independent owners (IOs) operating within microgrids (MGs) toward green power generation in deregulated energy markets. An optimization scheme is introduced for sizing distributed renewable generation (DRG) and a distributed energy storage system (DESS) based on a novel energy management system (EMS) that accounts for demand response (DR), DESS...

An Extended VIKOR-Based Approach for Pumped Hydro Energy Storage Plant Site Selection with Heterogeneous Information

The selection of a desirable site for constructing a pumped hydro energy storage plant (PHESP) plays a vital important role in the whole life cycle. However, little research has been done on the site selection of PHESP, which affects the rapid development of PHESP. Therefore, this paper aims to select the most ideal PHESP site from numerous candidate alternatives using the multi-criteria decisi...
