Combined photovoltaic and energy storage systems: an integrated electrification solution for small islands
The numerous small Aegean Sea islands present serious problems related to insufficient infrastructure, low quality of electricity available at very high production cost, as well as problematic connection with the mainland. On the other hand, the high solar potential of the area may encourage photovoltaic-based applications characterised by rather low maintenance support demands. In this context, ...

Comparative performance of BESS and SMES in distribution network to improve power quality
The FACTS devices, like STATCOM, are becoming a part of the modern power system to improve the power system operation and power quality problems. Integrating the battery energy storage system (BESS)/superconducting magnetic energy storage (SMES) across the dc bus of the STATCOM can provide effective modulation of the real and reactive power. The dynamics of each of these differ because of their ...

A dynamic virtual power station model comprising small-scale energy zones
Concerns over global warming and high oil prices are expected to lead to a continuous increase in electricity generated by distributed renewable energy sources and small-scale embedded generators (SSEGs). This increase in SSEG will pose numerous technical challenges for distribution network operators. The small-scale energy zone (SSEZ) concept seeks to overcome these challenges using appropriate ...

Blockchain technology in the energy sector – future of the energy industry?
Blockchain technology is a chain of blocks used to store and transmit data in a distributed manner, creating a decentralized data ledger. Despite the relatively early development stage, blockchain solutions in the energy sector are highly potential. What is blockchain? Blockchain is a technology that stores and transmits data about transactions. Data is arranged in the form of consecutive data ...

How Energy Storage Can Pave the Way for Renewable Energy Adoption
Introduction Renewable energy offers a hopeful promise to reduce the energy sector’s carbon footprint, but many challenges must be addressed before it can be more extensively integrated into our society. One of the greatest barriers to widespread adoption is quite simply that due to the nature of renewable energy – the fact that it is produced only when solar rays, wind, etc. are ...
