What is the potential of wind energy in Switzerland?
According to the Energy Strategy +, wind turbines in Switzerland should generate up to 4.3 TWh of electricity from wind power by . In order to quantify the potential of wind energy in Switzerland, the Swiss Federal Office of Energy (SFOE) recently went over the books.
Does energy storage improve wind power capacity credit?
Energy storage substantially improves the capacity credit of wind power from 4% to 26%. Levelized cost of hybrid systems assessed across different supply modes and scales. Optimal choice for a hybrid system depends on the scale rather than supply strategy. Levelized cost of utility PV & Li-ion battery systems could reduce by 30% by .
How much does wind & PHS cost?
Similarly, wind & PHS for ‘Baseload’ at the bulk scale offers a LCOHS of around 0.15 EUR/kWh which is presently much higher than nuclear (average levelized cost of 0.046 EUR/kWh for existing plants in Switzerland).
How much does a hybrid PV & wind system cost?
Hybrid systems with an aggregated supply of 50% wind & 50% PV offer the lowest levelized costs for Generation (0.14 EUR/kWh), Generation & peak (0.14 EUR/kWh), Bi-peak (0.17 EUR/kWh) and Baseload (0.15 EUR/kWh) compared with all other combinations of PV & wind hybrid systems.
How much does a solar photovoltaic cost?
We find that solar photovoltaics in combination with lithium-ion battery at the residential (0.39 to 0.77 EUR/kWh) and utility scale (0.17 to 0.36 EUR/kWh) as well as with pumped hydro storage at the bulk scale (0.13 to 0.18 EUR/kWh) offer the lowest levelized costs.
