The pumped hydro energy storage (PHES) is a well-established and commercially-
acceptable technology for utility-scale electricity storage and has been used since as early …

Onshore wind energy (WE) has achieved a significant diffusion worldwide, in spite of the
existence of multiple barriers to the large-scale implementation of wind farms. These barriers …

Pumped storage is generally viewed as the most promising technology to increase
renewable energy source (RES) penetration levels in power systems and particularly in …

With the increasing global demand for sustainable energy sources and the intermittent
nature of renewable energy generation, effective energy storage systems have become …

As renewable energy projects have gradually been introduced in various forms and in many
places around the world, public skepticism on these developments has emerged and siting …

This work introduces a new approach for the evaluation of numerical methods used in
calculating the Weibull parameters for the prediction of wind resource. In this evaluation …

Insular power systems are a special case of infrastructure for power production due to their
particular land morphology with extensive hills and ridges. For a higher renewable energy …

This paper presents important technical details for the design, construction and operation of
seawater pumped storage systems (S-PSS). S-PSS co-operating with wind parks, features …

To achieve higher renewable energy (RE) shares than the low levels typically found in
present energy supply systems will require additional integration efforts starting now and …

Combined wind and pumped-storage virtual power plants, called hybrid power stations
(HPS), constitute a realistic and feasible option to achieve high renewable energy source …
