Abstract

Due to the international environmental regulations and changes in policies, the demand for generators using the renewable energy is increasing. However, renewable energy generators with intermittent output characteristics such as solar and wind power generators, need the buffer facilities such as ESS during system operations. However, because of low price competitiveness in energy storage system, it is difficult to operate the renewable energy generator with ESS. Therefore, the government has recently proposed a policy to compensate the REC for renewable energy system with ESS. For all this, since the initial cost of the ESS is high, it is the most important to calculate and operate the optimal capacity of the ESS through an economic analysis. In this paper, we proposed the method of calculation the optimal capacity of ESS and analyzed economic feasibility of renewable energy system using the ESS according to depreciation in ESS price.
