Optimal Sizing, Techno-Economic Feasibility and
Using wind, solar, and battery storage as case studies, the article examines hybrid renewable energy system (HRES) size, optimization, techno-economic potential, and reliability
The economic performance by integrating energy storage technologies into wind generation has to be analyzed for commercial development . One solution is to implement the electricity price arbitrage strategy. The real-time pricing (RTP) varies in the market throughout a single day due to the different patterns of supply and demand.
When integrating the energy storage plant, it stores the wind power when the electricity price is low, and releases it when the price is high. The total income of the wind-storage coupled system can be significantly increased. However, it will increase the initial investment by adding energy storage system.
The revenue of wind-storage system is composed of wind generation revenue, energy storage income and its cost. With the TOU price, the revenue of the wind-storage system is determined by the total generated electricity and energy storage performance.
The integrated system can produce additional revenue compared with wind-only generation. The challenge is how much the optimal capacity of energy storage system should be installed for a renewable generation. Electricity price arbitrage was considered as an effective way to generate benefits when connecting to wind generation and grid.
