Evaluación técnico y económico de una MICRORRED (PV) con diferentes tipos de almacenamiento

Abstract

Currently, in Ecuador, there is significant growth in energy demand and a need to adopt new technologies for sustainable generation. This requires technical considerations when exploring new alternatives for energy generation or storage, which is why the choice of a photovoltaic microgrid must be analyzed in terms of technical, economic, and environmental aspects. This approach allows for a more detailed analysis of the feasibility of the system and the beneficiaries it will impact. Additionally, various types of storage for the system are proposed, which involves studying the advantages and disadvantages of each storage system presented in the document. The software used for modeling this system is Homer Pro, specialized in designing and optimizing energy systems, especially those that include renewable energy sources and storage. This tool is crucial for providing a solution or analysis of the energy system being presented. By using Homer Pro, we aim to simulate the scenarios outlined in this technical document and determine which storage system is most effective for the installation of our photovoltaic microgrid, considering various aspects such as economic, environmental, or installation factors when implementing the project. To achieve greater accuracy in presenting conclusions or final results, the project aims to use equipment or components that are readily available to the public in the country or, if not possible, can be obtained through other means to ensure that the results are as close as possible to the real-world simulation.
