Hot dry rock (HDR) power stations have the potential to serve as an energy storage system for large-scale photovoltaic (PV) plants. For flexible operation, thermal storage (TS) power stations are required to coordinate with HDR power stations. In this study, a hybrid power system is constructed by combining the HDR, TS, and PV plants. Game theory is then introduced into the optimal dispatch of the hybrid power system. Considering HDR, TS, and PV as players, non-cooperative and cooperative game dispatching models are established and verified by a case in the Gonghe basin of Qinghai. Finally, the stability of the coalitions and the rationality of allocation of the hybrid power system is verified, and the sensitivity of critical parameters is analyzed. The results demonstrate that the overall payoff of the hybrid power system is increased by 10.15%. The payoff of the HDR power station is increased by 16.5%. The TS power station has obtained 50% of the total extra profits. The PV plant reduces the impact on the grid to obtain the priority of grid connection. Based on these results, a theoretical basis can be provided for developing generation systems based on the HDR resources in the Gonghe Basin.

Greece has a large number of islands that are isolated from the main interconnected Greek power system; however, a majority of them are to be interconnected in the mainland grid over the next decade. A large number of these islands present a significant amount of wind and solar potential. The nature of load demand and renewable production is stochastic; thus, the operation of such isolated power systems can be improved significantly by the installation of a large-scale energy storage system. The role of storage is to compensate for the long and short-term imbalances between power generation and load demand. Pumped hydro storage (PHS) systems represent one of the most mature technologies for large-scale energy storage. However, their advantages have not been proven in practice for cases of medium and small-sized isolated insular systems. Regarding Greece, which contains a large number of isolated insular systems, a PHS system in the island of Ikaria started its test operation in 2019, whereas in Europe only one PHS system operates in El Hierro (Canary Islands). This paper studies the effect of installing a wind-PHS hybrid power station in the operation of the insular power system of Samos, Greece, according to the latest regulatory framework. The implemented analysis uses real hourly data for a whole year, and examines the effects of such an installation considering investors’ and power system operators’ viewpoints. More specifically, the economic viability of this project under different billing scenarios is compared, and its impact on the insular power system operation for various PHS sizes is examined.

This paper proposes optimal control strategies of a standalone Hybrid Power System (HPS) to supply sustainable and optimal energy to an isolated site with improved quality of electrical energy. A topology of Isolated Hybrid Power System (IHPS) is proposed, consists of: a Photovoltaic System (PVS), a Wind Energy Conversion System (WECS), electronic power devices controlled to maximize energy production from renewable sources and to maintain the constant DC-link voltage, a Battery Energy Storage System (BESS), Diesel Generator (DG), and a Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) Voltage Source Inverter (VSI) located at the load-side end. In addition, a novel control strategy has been proposed, in this work, to maximize the power from the PVS. This presented strategy, based on the combination between Perturb and Observe (P&O) algorithm and the Fuzzy PI Controller (FPIC), presents a good performance, especially in the dynamic state compared to the classical algorithm P&O. A supervisory control algorithm has been elaborated to manage the energy flows between the devices of the hybrid system to make the decision of the optimal operating mode in order to ensure a continuous supply of the load with minimum usage of batteries and DG. The simulation results developed in the Matlab/Simulink environment are applied to show the efficiency and performance of the proposed control strategies in terms of power optimization and energy management. Doi: 10.28991/esj-2021-01262 Full Text: PDF

Umuokpo Amumara is a village with an estimated population of 9,000 people and about 800 households located in the eastern region of Nigeria in West Africa. This village has no access to power grids for over a decade of existence. Umuokpo, by virtue of its location 5°27′35.9″N 7°19′60.0″E, on the average receives about 6 hours of sunlight with a daily average irradiance of 6.12 kWh/m2. The solar energy can be tapped and harnessed to generate quality electricity for this small village. Since the wind speed is low (ranging between 3.0 m/s and 3.5 m/s), the wind resource cannot be incorporated into the design. The average load demand of the village is 9.422 MWh/day with a peak load of 1.3 MW. This paper is aimed at designing a small hybrid power system that can generate sustainable electricity for the village from renewable energy sources. The design also considers a backup diesel generator and an energy storage system. The designed system consists of a 2,750 kW solar photovoltaic (PV), a 21,600 kWh battery storage, a 1,500 kW power electronic converter, and a 1,000 kW diesel generator. The simulation suggests that the proposed system can adequately meet the electricity needs of the village. A sensitivity analysis is also carried out on the system to observe its behavior with varying levels of irradiation and load.

Abstract This article deals with the energy management of a hybrid system composed of PV, Battery,ultracapacitor and diesel synchronous generators for a mobile hospital. The proposed power system can supply energy to Shelter Hospital for better treatment of patients in remote states, particularly in the event of a pandemic situation such as COVID-19. For this reason, a hybrid power system in which a diesel generator is used with a photovoltaic energy source for reliable availability of power supply. Moreover, batteries and ultra-capacitors are also integrated to obtain a hybrid power generation and storage system to ensure the smooth operation of mobile hospital weather conditions. Photovoltaic panels are connected to a boost converter to follow maximum power tracking (MPPT) and Power curtailment modes. The battery is connected to a bidirectional reversible DC-DC converter for DC bus voltage regulation and state of charge (SOC) control. The ultra-capacitor is associated with the battery to compensate for the peak power. The diesel generator is connected in parallel with the photovoltaic generator, battery, and ultra-capacitor to continuously provide the power required by the load. The integrated operation of all the generation and storage systems is complex for shelter hospital. Hence; an efficient energy management algorithm is developed to manage the continuous energy flow between the elements of the hybrid power system and mobile hospital load through the control of the power converters. Finally, validation results are presented to show the effectiveness of the proposed energy management of the hybrid power system.

Renewable energy sources are being actively penetrated in the global energy sector, with the main growth being achieved by new photovoltaic power stations. At the same time, the influence of photovoltaic power stations on the operation of power systems is known. This is primarily due to the inconstancy of the weather, which leads to a decrease in the output of each specific photovoltaic panel and power station as a whole. To study the effect of partial shading of photovoltaic panels on the parameters of its operation, various models of the current-voltage characteristics of photovoltaic cells are used in the world, while detailed two-diode models show the best results. The use of detailed models allows to get complete information about the processes in a variety of photovoltaic panels of a power station, as well as other elements of it, such as a voltage converter. This makes it possible to assess the impact of these processes on the external power system. However, for detailed modelling of large photovoltaic power stations as part of power systems, it is necessary to use powerful software and hardware systems. Such systems include the Hybrid real-time power system simulator. This simulator is a multiprocessor installation that provides a solution to the aggregate model of the power system through the use of three approaches to modelling: digital, analogue and physical. The article presents the results of experimental studies of software and hardware tools for modelling a photovoltaic power station, developed on the basis of a hybrid approach to modelling electric power systems.
