“…Vanhoudt et al [24] and Baetens et al [25] used Demand Cover Factor (DCF) as a measure of efficiency of local production for coverage of consumption. DCF is defined as the ratio to which the energy demanded by, in this case KAP, is covered by the PV production, in this case the FPPP (Equation (13) (13) where P S is the local power supply, in our case, this power is related on the power of the proposed FPPP and P D is the local power demand, in our case, it is power consumption at KAP.…”

“…Based on the considered results, both at the annual as well as the daily level, it can be concluded that the production of the FPPP power plant would cover a part of consumption of KAP but without significant reversible flows of energy. An increase in the value of the DCF factor could be achieved by building a solar thermal power plant which could be used to cover the nighttime electricity consumption of KAP [24,26].…”

This paper deals with a conceptual solution for the supply of a part of electrical energy for the needs of Aluminium Plant Podgorica (KAP) in Montenegro from a large Floating Photovoltaic Power Plant (FPPP), that would be installed on the nearby lake. The recommended FPPP, with an innovative azimuth angle control method and total installed power of 90 MWp, would consist of 18 power plants having an installed power of 5 MWp each. An analysis using the NREL solar insolation database ascertained that the recommended FPPP power plant can achieve a significantly higher production in comparison with previous solutions. An economic analysis has shown that the recommended power plant would yield positive economic indicators. Additionally, such a power plant would significantly contribute to the reduction of CO 2 emissions.

“…In this regard, the adoption of energy storage systems is a feasible solution to compensate for the above-mentioned fluctuations and to meet the demand of energy during the night hours [13,14]. Simultaneously, implementing demand response programmes can facilitate a resolution of this issue [15]. In addition to demand response, several research contributions examine the coordination of PV battery systems with demand side management.…”

The paper presents a review of the recent developments of photovoltaics integrated with battery storage systems (PV-BESs) and related to feed-in tariff policies. The integrated photovoltaic battery systems are separately discussed in the regulatory context of Germany, Italy, Spain, United Kingdom, Australia, and Greece; the attention of this paper is focused on those integrated systems subject to incentivisation policies such as feed-in tariff. Most of the contributions reported in this paper consider already existing incentive schemes; the remaining part of the contributions proposes interesting and novel feed-in tariff schemes. All the contributions provide an important resource for carrying out further research on a new era of incentive policies in order to promote storage technologies and integrated photovoltaic battery systems in smart grids and smart cities. Recent incentive policies adopted in Germany, Italy, Spain, and Australia are also discussed.

Technical Potential of Buildings in Germany as Flexible Power‐to‐Heat Storage for Smart‐Grid Operation

Storage is a key concept to cope with a growing supply of volatile renewable energy. Compared with genuine grid storage (power↔X), domestic heating and cooling, operated as flexible loads (power to heat), promises to lower infrastructure costs and offers potential for a short‐term demand response. Before designing new service markets, the true technical potential must be assessed. Herein, storage capacity is estimated by exploiting the entire thermally usable building mass as back‐end storage. Balancing power is determined from the steady‐state coincidence factor of buildings seen as thermostatically controlled load (TCL) populations. Results are reported for the residential and tertiary sectors in Germany by considering six classes of heating and cooling equipment. One advantage of the method is simplicity, which results in closed‐form estimates derived top‐down from nationwide and publicly available data on the building stock.
