“…Among several storage technologies [20], lithium-ion batteries may be the best overall choice for micro-grid applications in temperate climates areas, due to their energy efficiency, high specific power and energy, and a maturing market. For extreme hot or cold climates, nickel-metal hydride batteries may be the best choice, as less capital and operating energy need be spent on a cooling or heating system [21,22].…”

At global level nowadays, there is a general movement towards the goal of a ‘zero-emission’ energy systems. It will require a necessary energy transition characterized by a continuous increase of generation facilities from renewable energy sources (RES), from a massive increase in energy efficiency and, contemporary, an increased use of electricity to meet the energy needs traditionally required through the direct use of fossil fuels. In order to provide end-users with a greater knowledge and awareness of their energy consumption and the benefits of distributed use of renewable energy sources, it is fundamental to employ a smart metering progress which can enable an evolved and ‘smart’ management of the production–demand binomial and an active participation in the energy system. The importance of functionalities implemented in a smart meter—for end-user engagement, empowerment, and awareness—is presented in the paper. For instance, we present a simple optimization functionality for photovoltaic (PV) and storage system sizing based on load and production duration curves and historical data collected by the smart meter with fine resolution. The ease of this functionality uses a data history with extremely high resolutions, which are able to measure the power ramps that occur when an appliance or any other load is connected. An example of application of the smart meter functionality and test cases’ analysis are reported to demonstrate the effectiveness of the tool.

“…Power systems in the future could not be possible without storage. Pumped hydro storage was dominant throughout history, batteries are suitable for load shifting while flywheel, capacitors and superconductive inductors are suitable for voltage regulation [3]. Batteries are an ideal technology for continuous energy storage applications, while flywheels and super capacitors are ideal for power storage applications [2].…”

Battery technologies overview for energy storage applications in power systems is given. Lead-acid, lithium-ion, nickel-cadmium, nickel-metal hydride, sodium-sulfur and vanadium-redox flow batteries are overviewed. Description, graphical representation, advantages and disadvantages as well as technical characteristics are given for all technologies. Differences and similarities between different battery technologies are perceived. Battery technologies are considered with respect to peak shaving, load leveling, power reserve, integration of renewable energy, voltage and frequency regulation and uninterruptible power supply applications. According to technical characteristics for overviewed technologies, comparison between battery storage technologies is given through diagrams which are uniformed. Comparison is done according to specific power, specific energy, power density, energy density, power cost, energy cost, lifetime, lifetime cycles, cell voltage and battery technology efficiency.

“…Indeed, with the increase of distributed energy resources (DER), distribution systems have been recently affected by the deep involvement of small generation power resources which have led to a reduction of the system controllability. Within the high uncertainty that characterizes this context, the energy sector heads toward bottom-up models where flexible resources are controlled and coordinated by mean of a massive use of small energy storage systems (ESSs), which are able to meet energy self-sufficiency, self-consumption and offer also support to the electrical grid by providing ancillary services (ASs) [3].…”

DSO Flexibility Market Framework for Renewable Energy Community of Nanogrids

With the introduction of the renewable energy communities in the current electrical market environment, it becomes possible to aggregate small generation resources and users’ loads to exchange power within the aggregation and at the same time provide services to the electrical system. The renewable energy community of users equipped with nanogrid technology allows performing an adequate level of flexibility. It may be the solution to coordinate in the best possible way the energy resources in order to increase the community self-consumption and to provide ancillary services to the grid. In this paper, a model for the interaction between the Distribution System Operator (DSO)—Transmission System Operator (TSO) and the energy community based on nanogrids is proposed and an operational example is presented.
