Increasing the penetration of renewable energy resources in S. Vicente, Cape Verde

TL;DR: In this article, different scenarios are analyzed with the objective of increasing the penetration of renewable energies in the energy system of S. Vicente Island in Cape Verde in Africa, and the results show that it is possible to have more than 30% of yearly penetration in the electricity supply system, together with more than 50% of the water supplied to the population produced from wind electricity.

Reversible solid oxide systems for energy and chemical applications – Review & perspectives

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a mini-review in the field of energy storage using reversible solid oxide cells (rSOCs) for developing energy storage systems for the future, which fall under the category of power to X-to-power systems where excess electrical energy produced through renewables is stored in the form of chemicals and the same chemicals are used for conversion back to power.
