Electrochemical, mechanical, electrical, and hybrid systems are commonly used as energy storage systems for renewable energy sources [3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16]. In , an overview of ESS technologies is provided with respect to their suitability for wind power plants.
Hybrid energy storage systems integrate multiple technologies to provide a more comprehensive and flexible solution for renewable energy systems. By combining different technologies, these hybrid systems can maximize each technology’s benefits while minimizing their drawbacks.
The development of multi-storage systems in wind and photovoltaic systems is a crucial area of research that can help overcome the variability and intermittency of renewable energy sources, ensuring a more stable and reliable power supply. The main contributions and novelty of this study can be summarized as follows:
Hybrid solar PV and wind frameworks, as well as a battery bank connected to an air conditioner Microgrid, is developed for sustainable hybrid wind and photovoltaic storage system. The heap voltage's recurrence and extent are constrained by the battery converter.
This study is the first to explore the benefits of utilising STORES as a primary storage medium to support 100% renewable electricity futures in Southeast Asia. STORES can facilitate high penetration of variable solar and wind energy in electricity systems through energy time shifting and load levelling.
Within all the scenarios, the duration of storage is in the range of 0–38 h, which means hours or days of short-term energy storage are required in Southeast Asia rather than weeks or months of long-term, seasonal energy storage.
Rapid increases in electricity consumption in Southeast Asia caused by rising living standards and population raise concerns about energy security, affordability and environmental sustainability. In this study, the role of short-term off-river energy storage (STORES) in supporting 100% renewable electricity in Southeast Asia is investigated.
Consequently, the integration of wind energy can substantially reduce the reliance on energy storage to stabilise the electricity systems when solar energy is not sufficient. However, compared with solar energy, the seasonal variability in wind energy in Southeast Asia is large.
Using TRNSYS software, the proposed Parabolic Trough Collector (PTC)-based solar heating system paired with the boiler is modelled. Sensible thermal energy storage (TES) system is integrated into the refinery's process heating to handle the intermittent nature of solar energy.
Conclusion The present study investigates the feasibility of solar hybrid system to generate steam in the oil refinery to maintain the temperature of heavy crude oil products before despatching from storage tanks. Due to the intermittent behaviour of solar energy, the solar hybrid system is integrated with a sensible heat storage tank.
Most of the steam is to be used for the atmospheric distillation process, which is one of the most energy-intensive processes of a refinery. Furthermore, the exergy balance is shown in Fig. 12 c, which attests to an exergy efficiency of the plant of 55.5%. The energy efficiency determined from the energy balance is 82.4%.
Other studies in the literature considered coupling solar energy systems to oil refineries to decarbonize their operation. The applicability and feasibility of introducing a concentrated solar power (CSP) system to reduce partial reliance on process heaters of a crude oil refinery was studied by Danish et al. .
