Simulation of electricity supply of an Atlantic island by off-shore wind turbines and wave energy converters associated with a medium scale local energy storage
Résumé
This paper describes the problem of sizing an electricity storage for an island supplied by both marine renewables (offshore wind and waves) and the mainland grid. This problem is addressed by a case study based on a full year resource and consumption data. Generators (wave energy converters and wind turbines), transmission lines and battery storage (Lead acid technology) are accounted for through basic simplified models while the focus is put on electricity import/export budget. Self sufficiency does not seem a reasonable goal to pursue, but partial autonomy provided by renewable sources and a medium size storage would probably be profitable to the island community.
