Grid Implications of Decentralized Renewable Energy Generation at Various Demand Scales
This chapter presents an analysis of decentralized renewable energy generation: self-consumption characteristics of power from solar-photovoltaics (solar-pv), wind and biogas at various demand scales. Renewable energy is an essential element in the transition towards a more sustainable energy system. Most future energy scenarios suggest significant growth of renewable energy in the energy mix. Large shares of renewable energy in the energy mix are often associated with requirements to adapt existing energy grids to decentralized generation and potential supply and demand mismatches. The extent of grid adaptation requirements depends on the scale and type of renewable energy technology. High-level energy scenarios with long temporal and large spatial perspectives in general do not elaborate on the extent of grid adaptation requirements implicit from the future energy mix suggested in those scenarios. Part of that lack of specification may be explained by the unavailability of suitable tools to make highlevel assessments of the impact of high penetration rates of intermittent renewable energy on existing energy infrastructure.
