Minimización de los costos de inversión en sistemas de almacenamiento para micro-redes

Abstract

From an economic, environmental, energy and social point of view, exist the necessity of decoupling the generation based on fossil fuel. The distributed generation and energy storage to small and medium scale, power electronics and communication systems in micro-networks are the solution to that necessity. The growth of the demand curve, the limitation of electric power systems plus their expensive expansion, are causes to integrate distributed and generation storage systems, so that, it produced the necessity to optimize in function of their costs about investment, operation and maintenance. It is the purpose of this investigation, from an economic point of view, to develop a model that allows to solving which technology is the most economic, taking into account the capacity, constraints of each one and demand of the system. Three events are evaluated: one without demand limitations to be able to get the nominal contribution of all systems, the second to know which of the technology is more expensive, and the last with a low power restriction, aiming to get a model close to micro-red concept and evaluate the most economical technology.
