Hydrogen Office: modelling an energy storage system.

Abstract
United States Energy Information Administration (EIA) predict global renewable energy output is to increase by over 50% (excluding bio-fuels) between 2010 and 2023. Scotland's ambitious targets are focused on achieving renewable generation of 80% by the year 2020. However, Renewable Energy Foundation (REF) revealed that £900,000 in payments were make to power companies for a few hours between 4th and 5th April to stop producing energy from their wind farms. These payments were considered to be 20 times greater that the energy value. Why did this happen? The National Grid said the network had overload because high winds and heavy rain in Scotland overnight on 5-6 April had produced more wind energy than it could use. They admitted that there was a greater need for electrical energy storage facilities and greater interconnection with EU neighbours so that excess energy supplies can be sold or bought when required. This research aims to simulate and model solutions for electrical grid problems that can arise when using storage technologies in conjunction with renewable energy and electrical distribution networks.
