Strategies for Continuous Balancing in Future Power Systems with High Wind and ...
Nordström, Henrik; Söder, Lennart; Flynn, Damian; Matevosyan, Julia; Kiviluoma, Juha; Holttinen, Hannele; Vrana, Til Kristian; van der Welle, AdriaanABSTRACT: The use of wind power has grown strongly in recent years and is expected to continue to increase in the coming decades. Solar power is also expected to increase significantly. In a power system, a continuous balance is maintained between total production and demand. This balancing is currently mainly managed with conventional power plants, but with larger amounts of wind and solar power, other sources...
System impact studies for near 100% renewable energy systems dominated by inver...
Holttinen, Hannele; Kiviluoma, Juha; Flynn, Damian; Smith, J. Charles; Orths, Antje; Eriksen, Peter Børre; Cutululis, Nicolaos Antonio; Söder, LennartABSTRACT: The demand for low carbon energy calls for close to 100% renewable power systems, with decarbonization of other energy sectors adding to the anticipated paradigm shift. Rising levels of variable inverter-based renewable energy sources (VIBRES) are prompting questions about how such systems will be planned and operated when variable renewable generation becomes the dominant technology. Here, we examine...
Decarbonization of electricity systems in Europe: market design challenges
Strbac, Goran; Papadaskalopoulos, Dimitrios; Chrysanthopoulos, Nikolaos; Estanqueiro, Ana; Algarvio, Hugo; Lopes, Fernando; Vries, Laurens deABSTRACT: Driven by climate change concerns, Europe has taken significant initiatives toward the decarbonization of its energy system. The European Commission (EC) has set targets for 2030 to achieve at least 40% reduction in greenhouse gas emissions with respect to the 1990 baseline level and cover at least 32% of the total energy consumption in the European Union (EU) through renewable energy sources, predomi...
Spatial flexibility options in electricity market simulation tools: Deliverable...
Couto, António; Silva, Cátia; Algarvio, Hugo; Faria, Pedro; Pinto, Tiago; Schimeczek, Christoph; José, Débora Regina S.; Morales-España, GermánABSTRACT: Deliverable D4.3 addresses the spatial flexibility options that are being considered by TradeRES models. D4.3 presents a report describing the spatial flexibility-related modelling components that are already implemented and those that are being designed for integration in TradeRES agent-based models. This report includes the main definitions, concepts and terminology related to spatial flexibility, a...

Design and operation of energy systems with large amounts of variable generatio...
Holttinen, Hannele; Kiviluoma, Juha; Helistö, Niina; Levy, Thomas; Menemenlis, Nickie; Jun, Liu; Cutululis, Nicolaos Antonio; Koivisto, MattiABSTRACT: This report summarises findings on wind integration from the 17 countries or sponsors participating in the International Energy Agency Wind Technology Collaboration Programme (IEA Wind TCP) Task 25 from 2006–2020. Both real experience and studies are reported. Many wind integration studies incorporate solar energy, and most of the results discussed here are valid for other variable renewables in addit...
Design of ancillary service markets and products: Challenges and recommendation...
van der Welle, Adriaan; Morales-España, Germán; Sijm, Jos; Serna, Ricardo Hernandez; Kochems, Johannes; Couto, António; Algarvio, Hugo; Kiviluoma, JuhaABSTRACT: The overall objective of the current study is to analyse the implications of the transition towards a renewable, climate-neutral power system in the EU for the demand and supply of ancillary services (AS) of this system in general and for the market design and related EU regulation of these services in particular. The study focuses predominantly on electricity balancing services (‘frequency control’)....
Review of wind generation within adequacy calculations and capacity markets for...
Soder, Lennart; Tómasson, Egill; Estanqueiro, Ana; Flynn, Damian; Hodge, Bri-Mathias; Kiviluoma, Juha; Korpås, Magnus; Neau, Emmanuel; Couto, AntónioABSTRACT: The integration of renewable energy sources, including wind power, in the adequacy assessment of electricity generation capacity becomes increasingly important as renewable energy generation increases in volume and replaces conventional power plants. The contribution of wind power to cover the electricity demand is less certain than conventional power sources; therefore, the capacity value of wind pow...
