  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.

    Keywords : Automatic control; Hydropower modelling; PD-controller; Sustainable power production; Water level control.;

    Abstract : Globally, a significant portion of energy comes from hydropower. However, harnessing hydro energy interrupts the natural state of river flows, thus affecting the ecological processes of the surrounding communities. READ MORE

  4. 3. Unlocking the Potential of Battery Energy Storage Systems in the Nordic Frequency Regulation Markets : A techno-economic analysis to evaluate long-term profitability

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Author : Theodor Ingman; Henrik von Sivers; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : As the Swedish power system has increased its shares of production coming from intermittent renewables, the production coming from large rotational units as nuclear, and hydropower, has decreased. Thereby, the power system has become more sensitive to sudden changes between production and consumption of electricity, increasing the risk of disruptions in the electricity grid. READ MORE
