Abstract(s)
storage has become a key issue in management of
any renewable energy system. That is even more important
in an isolated electrical system, as is the case with island
system, due to the inherent fluctuating operation and
inaccurate energy forecast.
The growth of the decentralized generation in an isolated
electrical grid means load stability problems and requires
energy storage as a potential solution to guarantee safety
and reliability standards.
The study described in this paper highlights the need to store
energy in Madeira island electrical system and evaluate the
technical and environment benefits with the introduction of
batteries to strengthen power network.
A simulation tool was developed, suitable to quantify the
impact of batteries in wind energy and thermal power plants
existing technologies. This tool also allows the graphical
analysis of the daily production, as well as the evolution of
the power and energy in battery.
