What is the energy strategy for Guernsey?

The Electricity Strategy for Guernsey covers the period up to . The Committee for the Environment & Infrastructure considered several different ways in which Guernsey could meet its future demand including solar, wind, tidal, additional interconnectors, energy storage and alternative fuels.

Does Guernsey need a green economy?

It is essential that Guernsey can manage its own transition to a green economy effectively and so a strategic direction must be set, along with a market structure that supports this, and provide certainty to the energy industry. The Electricity Strategy was approved by the States of Deliberation in September . What was proposed?

Will electricity storage capacity grow by ?

With growing demand for electricity storage from stationary and mobile applications, the total stock of electricity storage capacity in energy terms will need to grow from an estimated 4.67 terawatt-hours (TWh) in to 11.89-15.72 TWh (155-227% higher than in ) if the share of renewable energy in the energy system is to be doubled by .

Does Guernsey Electricity need a 'accounting unbundling' exercise?

Guernsey Electricity will be required to undertake an 'Accounting Unbundling' exercise which involves separating the accounts associated with various activities undertaken within the business. This is needed to ensure transparency and fairness within the market.

Can tidal energy be used in Guernsey?

The use of tidal energy was included in the process and assessed in the pathways and forms a part of one proposed supply pathway, 'Lighthouse', where the States of Guernsey would invest in innovative and up-and-coming technologies that are not yet commercially viable.

Is electricity storage an economic solution?

Electricity storage is currently an economic solution of-grid in solar home systems and mini-grids where it can also increase the fraction of renewable energy in the system to as high as 100% (IRENA, 2016c). The same applies in the case of islands or other isolated grids that are reliant on diesel-fired electricity (IRENA, 2016a; IRENA, 2016d).

GUERNSEY could be using large grid-scale batteries to store energy as early as – despite the island’s draft electricity strategy stating they would not be ‘cost optimal’.

The Committee for the Environment & Infrastructure considered several different ways in which Guernsey could meet its future demand including solar, wind, tidal, additional interconnectors, energy storage and alternative fuels. After careful consideration and with advice from experts from the UK

The International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA) is an intergovernmental organisation that supports countries in their transition to a sustainable energy future, and it serves as the principal platform for international co-operation, a centre of excellence, and a repository of policy, technology

By , the installed costs of battery storage systems could fall by 50-66%. As a result, the costs of storage to support ancillary services, including frequency response or capacity reserve, will be dramatically lower. This, in turn, is sure to open up new economic opportunities. Battery storage

ised cost of electricity will become competitive around . Guernsey also has areas with no slack water, so as devices with the ability to ‘yaw’1 are developed a constant power output is possible. One reason for Guernsey’s superb tidal stream resource is the fact that it al o benefits from one of

The graph below provides an indication of the capital costs that would be required, at five yearly intervals, should all assets be owned by 'Guernsey' either through the States of Guernsey or

Electricity storage and renewables: Costs and markets to

Along with high system flexibility, this calls for storage technologies with low energy costs and discharge rates, like pumped hydro systems, or new innovations to store electricity

Electricity storage and renewables: Costs and markets to

Although pumped hydro storage dominates total electricity storage capacity today, battery electricity storage systems are developing fast, with falling costs and improving performance.

Utility scale battery storage cost per kwh Guernsey

Base year costs for utility-scale battery energy storage systems (BESSs) are based on a bottom-up cost model using the data and methodology for utility-scale BESS in (Ramasamy et al., ).
