Abstract

Remote communities beyond the reach of conventional electricity grids primarily rely on diesel generators (DG) to supply electricity. The systems in these communities are costly to operate because of the high price of transporting diesel to remote areas, and the low overall efficiencies caused by part-load operation of the DG. There is increasing interest to use wind energy converters (WEC) to supplement DG, thereby lowering the fuel consumption and operating costs. In order to use WEC to reduce the economic and environmental burden that DG have on remote communities, an energy storage system can be incorporated to buffer both generation and demand. This can avoid curtailment of the WEC, operate the DG at optimal efficiency, and reduce the necessary maximum installed generator capacities.
