Keep it short: Exploring the impacts of configuration choices on the recent economics of solar-plus-battery and wind-plus-battery hybrid energy plants

Technical Report Montañés, Cristina Crespo ; Gorman, Will ; Mills, Andrew D ; ...

Coupled renewable-battery powerplants differ from the traditional concept of independent siting of electricity resources within transmission networks. Prior research on the value proposition and cost savings from coupling did not consider the geographic constraint of co-location. This paper fills the gap by assessing how pricing volatility differences between nodes within electricity markets impact the system value of coupled renewable-battery projects as compared to independent VRE and battery installations. We use wholesale power market prices from 2012–2019 across the seven main U.S. independent system operators (ISOs) with a linear optimization program to compare the electricity market value of coupled projects to the value of the same underlying sub-components, deployed separately. We find that additional value from adding a 4-hour battery sized to 50% of renewable-plant nameplate capacity ismore »« less

Santa Clara, California, Community Center commercial solar demonstration. Progress report: six months data acquisition and analysis of cooling performance

Technical Report Niemeyer, W ; Ayraud, S ; Hemsch, M ; ...

The Santa Clara Community Center is a 27,000 sq. ft one-story building set in a Mediterranean climate. The peak summer cooling load for the building is estimated to be 5.9 x 10/sup 6/ Btu/day and is roughly twice the estimated peak winter heating load. The solar-driven hydronic system includes 7085 sq. ft of double-glazed flat plate collectors with a selective coating, two 25-ton ARKLA absorption chillers, a 50,000 gallon stratified cold storage tank and a 10,000 gallon hot storage tank. A gas-fired boiler is used for backup. A minicomputer controlled data acquisition system has been providing operational data including detailedmore »« less
Santa Clara, California, community center, commercial solar demonstration, legal alternatives, implications, and financing of solar heating and cooling by a municipal corporation

Technical Report White, S S ; Owen, T S ; Ryan, R A ; ...

The legal issues confronting municipal corporations who propose to provide for solar energy utilization within their jurisdictions are many. Generally, however, such issues may be resolved in favor of most proposed forms of utilization based upon traditional legal principles. Threshold issues confronting any municipal utilization relate to the impact purpose. Previous judicial decisions indicate that an action by a private utility against a municipal corporation based upon impairment of contract, taking of property without compensation, unfair competition or antitrust violation would not be successful. As to public purpose, the expanding nature of the traditional concept should overcome any objection asmore »« less
