Abstract
This talk will discuss a simple probabilistic model exploring how storage can be effectively used to aid the operation of an electricity network with uncertain energy inputs. What is the best way of scheduling conventional units in advance to make optimum use of the variable and hard to predict renewable resource?
The solution to this problem will depend, amongst other things, on
oThe quality of the renewable prediction process
oThe capacity of the store
oThe efficiency and maximum release rate of the store
oRamp constraints and delayed reaction of conventional generation
oThe risk appetite of the network operator
Series This talk is part of the Isaac Newton Institute Seminar Series series.
