River Basin Management
and Planning. Keynote Paper for the International Workshop on River Basin
Management,
Hague.
This integration is to allow for new services and revenue channels, and to
support new business models.
There are several technological options that can help to integrate such scenario
into the power system grid :
system-friendly variation,
flexible generation,
grid extension,
smart grid technologies, and
storage technologies.
New advances in wind and solar PV technologies allow them to be used over a
wider range of conditions and provide ancillary services like frequency and
voltage control. Flexible generation requires changes in the energy mix to
optimise production from both dispatchable and non-dispatchable resources.
Smart grid technologies can act as an enabler for VRE integration, given their
ability to reduce the variability in the system by allowing the integration of
renewables into diverse electricity resources, including load control (e.g. Demand
Side Management (DSM), Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI), and enhancing
the grid operation and therefore helping to efficiently manage the systems
variability by implementing advanced technologies (e.g. smart inverters, Phasor
Measurement Unit (PMU) and Fault Ride Through (FRT) capabilities).
This is, for example, the case of the Smart Grid demonstration project in Jeju
Island, South Korea. Furthermore, the right assessment and understanding of
VRE integration costs are relevant for policy making and system planning. Any
economic analysis of the transition towards renewables-based power systems
should, therefore, consider all different cost components for VRE grid integration,
such as grid costs (e.g. expansion and upgrading), capacity costs and balancing
costs. Integration costs are due not only to the specific characteristics of VRE
technologies but also to the power system and its adaptability to greater
variability. Therefore, these costs should be carefully interpreted and not entirely
attributed to VRE, especially when the system is not flexible enough to deal with
variability (i.e. in the short-term).
After the Sixth World Water Forum in Marseille, France in 2012, Electricite de France
(EDF) and the World Water Council (WWC) agreed to work on the framework, The
Multipurpose Water Uses of Hydropower Reservoirs. This framework bridges the
sixth forum in Marseille and the seventh forum in Daegu and Gyeongbuk in the
Republic of Korea in April 2015.
The framework addresses how to minimize contradictions and competition among
multipurpose water uses of hydro reservoirs and how to set an appropriate
governance structure that would allow coordinated and integrated water use
management in terms of strategy, planning, decision-making and operation.
