Electricity storage is crucial for power systems to achieve higher levels of renewable energy
penetration. This is especially significant for non-interconnected island (NII) systems, which …

Efficient storage participation in the secondary frequency regulation of island systems is a
prerequisite towards their complete decarbonization. However, energy reserve limitations of …

This paper assesses the effects of fossil natural gas (NG) price variations and NG
consumption restrictions on the development and decarbonization of future cross-sector and …

The generation management concept for non-interconnected island (NII) systems is
traditionally based on simple, semi-empirical operating rules dating back to the era before …

This paper investigates the benefits from operating thermal units in isolated grids below their
technical minimum loading (TML) levels for short time periods, as a means of providing …

European Union has seen a rapid increase in renewable energy sources during the last
decade. The variability and uncertainty caused by the increased penetrations of renewable …

This paper proposes a 24-h ahead unit commitment for a diesel-photovoltaic (PV)-battery
system using mixed-integer linear programming (MILP) to minimize the operating cost which …

Hybrid power stations (HPSs) constitute virtual power plants comprising storage and RES
facilities operated by a single entity, the HPS operator. The HPS concept applies in …

This paper investigates the operation of the isolated power system of Cyprus under high
RES penetration conditions, supported by fast-response storage. A two-layer, cost-optimal …

The load demand of many non-interconnected island (NII) power systems exhibits high
seasonal variability owing to the increased demand during the touristic summer season …
