Alternative Abstract
Renewable Energy has increased its participation in the last decades, and nowadays solar, wind, geothermal and waste energy represents around 7% of total electricity production worldwide [1]. Depending on the renewable energy source, its integration, and especially operation, it requires detailed technical and economic analyses. Due to its topology, electrical power infrastructure in islands or remote areas is small and weak. Frequently, these types of systems depend on thermal diesel generation, and renewable energy integration is a big challenge, because of intermittent and fluctuant patterns of natural sources such as solar irradiation and wind speed especially. Energy Storage Systems-ESS use as a solution to grid stabilization and reduction of operational costs by optimization the use of renewable resources principally. By this study it will determine the power capacity of energy storage facilities by size, to flexible and maximize renewable energy penetration, reducing current operational costs and increasing the reliability of San Cristobal Microgrid. For that, it will select a computer tool to determine the optimal size of energy storage systems.
