Abstract

Utilization of solar and wind energy is increasing worldwide. Photovoltaic and wind energy systems are among the major contributing tec4hnologies to the generation capacity from renewable energy sources; however, the generation often does not temporally match the demand. Micro-compressed air energy storage (micro-CAES) is among the low-cost storage options, and its coupling with the power generated by photovoltaics and wind turbines can provide demand shifting, modeled by efficient algorithms. A model based on criteria that are preset according to the demand is presented. The model decides on the distribution of the generated energy, depending on the state of the energy storage and the preset criteria of each storage technology. The satisfaction of the demand by the energy production and micro-CAES is compared to that of storage batteries. The demand originates in a case study of a household and optimal configurations of photovoltaics and wind turbines, and the storage capacities and costs are compared. An optimal configuration of 30 photovoltaic panels and two wind turbines was found for micro-CAES. The annual stored energy of micro-CAES was 114 kWh higher than that of the system with batteries.
