Value of pumping-storage in insulated electrical systems with strong wind penetration

J. García-González

December 2016 - December 2019

Funding entity Ministerio de Economía y Competitividad

Participated by Universidad Politécnica de Madrid


The main objective of the project is to estimate the value of storage by pumping (AB) in isolated electrical systems with strong wind penetration.
For this, it is planned to use the electrical systems of four Spanish islands as case studies. In those where the installation of AB is not foreseen, the project team (EP) will define the main parameters of these facilities according to their experience.
Various optimization models will be developed for the assignment of groups (Unit Commitment, UC) and the optimal dispatch of power (Power Dispatch, PD).
