Distributed Energy Systems with Wind Power and Energy Storage

چکیده
In this paper, local hydrogen energy storage is proposed asan alternative to grid reinforcements in rural areas withhigh wind power potential and weak distribution lines.Present and future production cost estimates of electricityare calculated for different wind-storage systems assumingoptimal operation in a competitive power market. It isshown that hydrogen energy storage could become an eco-nomically feasible alternative to grid expansions if costand performance goals of hydrogen technology areobtained. The controllable power from the wind-storagesystem must then be valued 2-3 times higher than fluctuat-ing power in the market. The results are based on a simpleprobabilistic model. Further work on a comprehensivesimulation model will be carried out, in order to investi-gate different operation strategies and design criteria forwind-storage systems.
