A review on recent size optimization methodologies for standalone solar and wind hybrid renewable energy system
TL;DR: This paper aims to present a comprehensive review on recent developments in size optimization methodologies, as well as a critical comparison of single algorithms, hybrid algorithms, and software tools used for sizing standalone solar and wind HRES.
Journal ArticleDOI
Integration of Renewable Energy Sources in future power systems: The role of storage
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the influence of storage size and efficiency on the pathway towards a 100% renewable energy source integration in a power supply system and found that up to 50% of the overall electricity demand can be met by an optimum combination of wind and solar resources without both curtailment and storage devices.
Journal ArticleDOI
Power-to-What? : Environmental assessment of energy storage systems
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a systematic environmental comparison of energy storage systems providing different products and determine the environmental impacts avoided by using 1 MW h of surplus electricity in the energy storage system instead of producing the same product in a conventional process.
