Optimal use of energy storage systems with renewable energy sources ?
We model a electricity system with high penetration of Renewable Energy Sources (RES). We analyze the optimality conditions when using Energy Storage Systems (ESS). We calibrate the network with realistic data for wind penetrations close to 15%. The placement of ESS can lead to less RES usage, depending on congestion. The benefits to consumers are dependent on the effective MWh of RES dispatched.
