The energy from renewable sources had always been perceived as free or at least lower-cost energy, with its sourcing from natural sources such as solar radiation and wind energy. In actual the cost breakdown of renewable energy would exceed that of traditional energy sources in almost all cases. This study attempts to produce a cost model for renewable energy systems. The model takes into account different requirements and site variations into account. In this paper, elements of the cost model Renewable Energy System (RES) especially, photo-voltaic solar systems, have been investigated. Cost items are presented alongside a to-do checklist for the new Photo-Voltaic (PV) solar energy system. The goal of this study is to construct a model that would cover the cost sources as well as bring to attention the unexpected sources of cost variations that include all possible cost items of a new solar renewable energy system. The feasibility of the new system is expressed in terms of Total Cost (T.C) and Cost of Energy (COE). The model can evaluate the feasibility of off-grid as well as on-grid systems. The model investigated properly as well as an empirical analysis and verified through results comparison with reviewed case studies. The results revealed that the cost of off-grid systems is higher than the cost of on-grid systems due to the cost of batteries as well as the cost of standby generators. So, it would be more feasible to use an off-grid system only in remote or isolated areas. Risk Cost lists, ranking and success factors of new renewable projects are exhibited.

The integration of renewable energy is transcendental for sustainable development. This article analyses a hybrid grid-connected system composed of renewable energy technologies (photovoltaichydrokinetic), where several scenarios for energy management are proposed. They include a battery system as energy storage and a system without storage but with resale fee to grid, with the aim of determining the best economic and environmental balance. The results show that, by having a (PV-HKT-GRID) system with energy storage and no resale fee to the grid, the Net Present Cost (NPC) is increased by USD $ 132, 760 and the Cost of Energy (COE) decreases $ 0.013/kWh when compared to the grid. In addition, the same hybrid system without energy storage and no resale fee to grid, presents an energy cost savings of $ 0.043/kWh, and an additional cost of USD $ 43, 630. Finally, if a grid resale rate is included in the renewable hybrid system, then the difference is noticeable, the savings in the Cost of Energy is $ 0.073/kWh and presents a saving in the NPC of USD $ 39, 930. In all cases, CO2 emissions have been avoided.

Energy storage system (ESS) plays a prominent role in renewable energy (RE) to overcome the intermittent of RE energy condition and improve energy utilization in the power system. However, ESS for residential applications requires specific and different configuration. Hence, this review paper aims to provide information for system builders to decide the best setup configuration of ESS for residential application. In this paper, the aim is to provide an insight into the critical elements of the energy storage technology for residential application. The update on ESS technology, battery chemistry, battery charging, and monitoring system and power inverter technology are reviewed. Then, the operation, the pro, and cons of each variant of these technologies are comprehensively studied. This paper suggested that the ESS for residential ESS requires NMC battery chemistry because it delivers an all-rounded performance as compared to other battery chemistries. The four-stages constant current (FCC) charging technique is recommended because of the fast charging capability and safer than other charging techniques reviewed. Next, the battery management system (BMS) is recommended to adapt in advance machine learning method to estimate the state of charge (SOC), state of health (SOH) and internal temperature (IT) to increase the safety and prolong the lifespan of the batteries. Finally, these recommendations and solutions aimed to improve the utilization of RE energy in power system, especially in residential ESS application and offer the best option that is available on the shelf for the residential ESS application in the future.

This work aims to consider the combination of different technologies regarding energy production and management with four possible configurations. We present an energy management algorithm to detect the best design and the best configuration from the combination of different sources. This combination allows us to produce the necessary electrical energy for supplying habitation without interruption. A comparative study is conducted among the different combinations on the basis of the cost of energy, diesel consumption, diesel price, capital cost, replacement cost, operation, and maintenance cost and greenhouse gas emission. Sensitivity analysis is also performed.

Abstract Reducing CO2 emissions is becoming one of the core targets for countries after the Paris agreement, which sets out a global framework to avoid dangerous climate change by limiting global warming to below 2°C and pursuing efforts to limit it to 1.5°C. To meet this objective also oil and gas operators have started to engage in an important effort to reduce the CO2 emissions in their plants and facilities. From this perspective Saipem developed its Wind2Sub, a Wind Power for Long Subsea Tie-Back (LSSTB) concept, where its own pendular floating foundation solution, namely Hexafloat, can host a wind turbine generator (WTG), all the utilities needed for subsea field development and operation (power distribution, chemical storage and injection, control system) and a back-up energy system to compensate the intermittent production due to wind persistence, currently a diesel generator (DG). The present paper will explore new solutions to ensure the continuity of the energy supply from Saipem Wins2Sub, based on green technologies. This may be done by collecting the generated surplus energy from a renewable energy system, in this case from WTG to a topside or subsea power storage. By adopting an Energy Storage System (ESS), it will be possible to use this energy when production from wind is low or null. This concept will replace the diesel generators, or any carbon fuel, so that the whole system will become green self-sustaining, as an energy island, without CO2 emissions. The activities performed during the concept development are articulated through the following steps: a selection of two typical oil field scenarios where Wind2Sub solution can be applicable; screening of the current technologies to store energy and a selection of those viable to the two selected scenarios; wind conditions and WTG power analysis with estimation of the amount of the energy to be stored; preliminary design of the ESS; preliminary cost estimation. The study was carried out by using a digital tool developed by Moss Maritime in the context of a Proof of Concept based on Floating energy storage. The tool allows to evaluate the feasibility of a solution through modellization of different renewable energy scenarios, demand profiles, simulation of operation, pre-sizing of the systems and cost estimation (LCOE, LCOS, LCOH). The ESS combined with Saipem Wind2Sub will be described more thoroughly in the present paper through the explanation of the results achieved within the case studies.
