This article deals with the analysis of a day-ahead generation diagram in specific part of a power network with renewable energy sources. As a renewable energy source a photovoltaic power plant was chosen. Input data for a day-ahead analysis was obtained from the database of previous measurement that was realised on the existing configuration in off-grid network at the department of authors. The simulation network was created in Matlab/Simscape Power System environment that consisted of rotating generators (for regulation of generated power due to fluctuated power generation from photovoltaic sources) and photovoltaic power plant of variable energy generation and loads. The results refer to a necessity to consider the previous measured data of the weather for prediction of future expectation of a day-ahead load diagram.

Design Study

Design study of a synergetic system among small long life gas cooled fast reactors and renewable energy has been performed. A pump storage system is the center in the integration among considered energy sources. Using this system many renewable energy sources and the small nuclear power plant can be integrated to produce reliable energy sources which can be used for electricity production, desalination, etc. In this system each energy source can store energy by contributing pumping water from a low level reservoir to a high level reservoir. The nuclear power plant module must satisfy inherent safety requirement, and have flexibility in producing electricity, clean water (through desalination), etc. The reactor can be operated for 25 years without the necessity to refuel during that period. To achieve inherent safety capability it is important to minimized excess reactivity during burn-up to be below delayed neutron fraction value so that super prompt critical accident such as in Chernobyl accident case can be avoided. Here minimization of excess reactivity is carried out by adjusting core and blanket region width and plutonium enrichment in core regions.

The paper presents the analysis of different types of impact the hydroelectric power plants’ reservoirs could make on the environment. Hydroelectric power plants (HPP) produce ecologically safe energy and correspond to the modern striving for sustainability because they are operated on renewable energy sources. At the same time they can provoke various potential dangers for the environment. The objective of the investigation is to demonstrate the interrelation between the type and structure of a hydroelectric power plant and the way its reservoir may impact on the nature surrounding the plant. These effects may be direct and indirect, positive and negative and vary from insignificant that can be easily fixed to those that are irreversible and catastrophic. The latter should be taken into account during the design of HPP.

Low Efficiency

An increase in the share of renewable energy sources characterized by intermittent generation leads to a decrease in the quality of electricity and the need to balance the load on the network. The methods used today for balancing the load on the generation side, as well as the use of energy storage technology, do not always provide an effective solution to the balancing problem. This is especially evident when traditional generators are transferred from the base load electricity sources to the reserve ones. The main issue is the increased electric energy losses due to the low efficiency of the power storage technology. Using the most advanced hybrid power plant Gorona del Viento (El Hierro island, Canary archipelago, Spain), which includes traditional and renewable energy sources, as reference, we are describing the methods of balancing the load on the network, which includes balancing, both the electricity generation and consumption. Using the calculation models of the hybrid power plant operating modes, the possibility of implementing various load balancing strategies on the consumption side has been demonstrated, their features have been analyzed, their effectiveness in reducing energy losses has been demonstrated.

Abstract The electricity sector in Europe and in the world is undergoing rapid and profound changes. There is a sharp increase in the capacity of renewable energy sources, coal and nuclear power plants are being closed and new technologies are being introduced. Especially rapid changes are taking place in the energy systems of the Baltic States. Under these conditions, there is an emerging need for new planning tools particularly for the analysis of the power system properties in a long-term perspective. The main contribution of this article lies in the formulation and solution of optimization problems that arise when planning the development of power systems in the Baltic States. To solve this problem, it is necessary to use models of various power plants and make a number of assumptions, the justification of which requires the following actions: to briefly review the current situation of the production and demand of energy in the Baltic power systems; to conduct an overview of the Baltic interconnections and their development; to make forecasts of energy prices, water inflow, energy production and demand; to set and solve the problems of optimization of power plant operation modes; to demonstrate the possibility and limitations of the developed tools on the basis of real-life and forecast data. In this paper, a case study is performed using the main components of the overall modelling framework being developed. It focuses on the Baltic power systems in 2050 under the conditions of significant expansion in the installed capacity of renewable energy sources (RESs) and diminished fossil fuel power plant activity. The resulting electricity generation mix and trade balance with neighbouring countries is assessed, showing that even with significant RES expansion, the Baltic countries remain net importers and because of the intermittency of RESs, there are hours within the year when the demand cannot be met.

Environment Sustainability

Traditionally, renewable energy sources (RES) are considered the most environmentally friendly, but only the stage of their operation is evaluated. A method for the integrated assessment of the renewable energy environment sustainability has been proposed, taking into account their entire life cycle - from the extraction of natural resources for the production of a power plant to its utilization. An impact assessment of RES different types on the environment has been carried out in four areas: consumption of natural resources, pollution of water resources, pollution of the soil and pollution of the atmosphere. The comparison of the considered environmental components has been carried out on the basis of an environmental pollution economic assessment at the stages of the RES life cycle. Studies have shown that the life cycle of a solar power plant makes the greatest contribution to environmental pollution, but the mini-hydroelectric station - the smallest.
