Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Variable renewable energy generations (RE) are being integrated into power systems in the world due to their environmental advantages. On the other hand, massive integration of RE would enlarge system frequency excursion due to variable and intermittent nature of RE outputs. For the supply and demand balancing control in a whole power system, introduction and application of energy storage systems (ESS) attracts great attention in the world. Usage of ESS is technically feasible, but is still difficult from economical viewpoint, due to their expensive installation cost and round-trip conversion losses. Therefore, as an alternative solution for fluctuation in generation output from renewables, the authors propose combined heat-pump and co-generation system such as gas-engine generator system, fuel cell system (CHBS). Major distinguishing idea of CHBS is to hybridize two heat supply devices, heat pump (HP) and CGS. Adequate control of HP and BG enables the apparent energy storage function.
