1. 1. Unlocking the Potential of Solar-Hydro Hybrid Solutions: Feasibility and Economic Analysis

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Industriell elektroteknik och automation

   Author : Måns Rosberg; [2023]
   Keywords : Hydropower; Solarpower; Hybrid power production; Solar-hydro hybrid power; Reservoir storage; Energy storage; Pumped hydro power; Floating PV; PV; Photovoltaics; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : Hybrid solutions that combine multiple renewable energy sources, such as solar power and hydro power, are gaining popularity as a means of meeting the growing energy demands while minimising environmental impacts, but also as an opportunity of connecting solar power plants to the grid in areas where this might not be possible unless large investments are made. This master thesis aims to evaluate the feasibility and economic viability of integrating solar panels with an existing grid connection point at a hydro power plant, along with the introduction of an energy storage solution using a hydro power plant reservoir.

3. 2. Development of an investment model for pumped storage hydropower

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Elektricitetslära

   Author : Pontus Gustavsson; Eric Swanmark; [2023]
   Keywords : pumped storage hydropower; investment models; energy storage; grid balancing;

   Abstract : The energy market is evolving, with a prediction of heavily increased consumption and, consequently, increased production. In parallel, EU directives with targets prioritising fossil-free electricity production, reduction of greenhouse gas emissions and becoming climate neutral by 2050, poses a challenge for the current state of electricity production in the Nordics.

4. 3. Pumped-Storage Hydroelectricity for a Sustainable Electricity Transition

   University essay from KTH/Numerisk analys, NA

   Author : Teodor Elmfeldt; [2023]
   Keywords : Pumped-storage hydroelectricity; Electric grid; Computational Mathematics; Juktan Power Station; Applied mathematics; Power system; Sustainability; Pumpkraft; Elnät; Beräkningsmatematik; Juktan Kraftverk; Tillämpad mate- matik; Elkraftteknik; Hållbarhet;

   Abstract : This master thesis explores the application of Pumped-Storage Hydroelectricity (PSH) within an electricity market characterised by a substantial share of renewable and intermittent electricity production. The purpose of PSH is to enhance the alignment of supply with demand by storing energy at electricity surplus and releasing it during shortage. READ MORE

6. 5. Study on feasibility of small-scale pumped hydro storage- A case study in Sweden

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för energivetenskaper

   Author : Prashant Niroula; [2023]
   Keywords : energy storage; pumped hydropower; electricity market; investment; new technologies; feasibility; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : The European union has been aggressively pushing forward with policies favoring renewable sources of energy. As a result, the share of intermittent renewables in the European power grid is rising and is expected to grow even more in the coming decade. The Swedish energy agency also forecast huge growth in wind power. READ MORE
