Abstract
The system-level consideration of inter-
mittent renewable energy sources and small-scale en-
ergy storage in power systems remains a challenge as
either type is incompatible with traditional operation
concepts. Non-controllability and energy-constraints
are still considered contingent cases in market-based
operation. The design of operation strategies for up to
100 % renewable energy systems requires an explicit
consideration of non-dispatchable generation and stor-
age capacities, as well as the evaluation of operational
performance in terms of energy eciency, reliability,
environmental impact and cost. By abstracting from
technology-dependent and physical unit properties, the
modeling framework presented and extended in this pa-
per allows the modeling of a technologically diverse unit
portfolio with a unied approach, whilst establishing
the feasibility of energy-storage consideration in power
system operation. After introducing the modeling ap-
proach, a case study is presented for illustration.
