Renewable SEEDS -Sustainable Electric Energy Delivery Systems
Renewable energy technologies are seen as the only sustainable energy source for the future. But, since many forms of renewable energy are intermittent in nature, an energy storage medium or energy carrier will be needed to effectively use this energy. Many renewable technologies, such as solar, wind, etc. are available over large areas, so installations of equipment to harvest this energy will likely be distributed at various locations on the power system. Also, efficient operation of the power system will require that power and energy to supply the power system peak demand must be available when needed. In order to address these issues, Progress Energy Florida (PEF) and the Power Center for Utility Explorations (PCUE) at University of South Florida are conducting this demonstration project to combine renewable distributed generation and an advanced battery system to supply renewable energy during the power system peak. ...more
