Optimal Design of Solar PV Farms With Storage
Abstract—We consider the problem of allocating a capital bud-get to solar panels and storage to maximize the expected revenue in the context of a large-scale solar farm participating in
Coupling solar energy and storage technologies is one such case. The reason: Solar energy is not always produced at the time energy is needed most. Peak power usage often occurs on summer afternoons and evenings, when solar energy generation is falling.
To begin with, solar energy production is stochastic, with a high peak-to-average ratio, thus the access link is typically provisioned at less than peak capacity, leading to the potential waste of energy due to curtailment. The use of storage prevents power curtailment, but the allocation of capital to storage reduces the amount of energy produced.
A thorough literature review on the application of renewable technologies in households and operational management was performed. Due to the intermittent nature of solar energy, integrating photovoltaic panels with storage technologies offers users greater energy independence from the grid, leading to monthly savings on energy costs.
Energy Storage allows bulk energy shifting of solar generation to take advantage of higher PPA rates in peak periods, or to allow utilities to address daily peak demand that falls outside periods of solar generation. CAPACITY FIRMING Turn Solar Energy into a Dispatchable Asset
