Abstract:
Using Singapore's solar potential to produce electricity could increase its energy independence and reduce the specific CO2 emissions of its power supply. Thereby, energy storage technologies offer the opportunity to increase the usage of electricity from solar PV during power demand peaks. This would lead to more efficient power plant use and less required residual generation capacity. In this paper we analyse the power generation capacity that can be replaced by solar PV in combination with energy storage. In our research, we use a linear programming model of Singapore's power supply that optimizes power generation and storage according to minimal total cost. To determine the power generation by solar PV we use direct measurements of solar irradiation in Singapore. Results show that generation capacity can be replaced by solar PV most efficiently with lower storage sizes and lower solar PV capacity installed. By installing 5 GW of solar PV installed and a storage capacity of 1000 MWh, up to 750 MW of generation capacity could be replaced.
