How to create a shared energy storage community?

Community setup The first step to have shared energy storage is to form communities which are built by using the k -means approach. The geographical locations (longitude and latitude) are used to cluster the households. In this case, K = 3 is used to form three communities due to the distance limitation of CES and the road intersection.

Should community energy storage be used instead of private energy storage?

Computational results are presented on two real use cases in the cities of Ennis, Ireland and Waterloo, Canada, to show the advantage of using community energy storage as opposed to private energy storage and to evaluate the cost savings which can facilitate future deployment of community energy storage.

Are shared energy resources better than private energy storage?

We demonstrate the advantages of using shared as opposed to private energy storage. Distributed Energy Resources have been playing an increasingly important role in smart grids. Distributed Energy Resources consist primarily of energy generation and storage systems utilized by individual households or shared among them as a community.

What are the constraints of energy storage?

Constraints (22), (23) model the charging power and discharging power from the energy storage e which cannot exceed the maximum electric power capacity at time t. Additionally, constraints (24) – (27) indicate that the energy storage cannot charge and discharge simultaneously for a given household r and a given time t.

Do households own energy storage and not share energy resources?

In this part, we consider the case where households own individual energy storage and do not share these resources, i.e, own PESs. The first observation is that when households install PV systems and PESs, the flexibility of controlling their demand is much higher and thus the aggregator’s electricity cost can decrease significantly.
