Off-grid PV systems are providing critical access to energy services for millions of people throughout the globe. However, optimum sizing of these PV systems still poses a challenge, as inadequate system sizing could result in low system reliability and/or high cost of electri ...

With increasing decarbonisation and accessibility to our energy systems and markets, there is a need to understand and optimise the value proposition for different stakeholders. Game-theoretic models represent a promising approach to study strategic interactions between self-i ...

Reliable access to electricity is still a challenge in many developing countries. Indeed, rural areas in sub-Saharan Africa and developing countries such as India still encounter frequent power outages. Local energy markets (LEMs) have emerged as a low-cost solution enabling p ...

Deregulated power systems with high renewable penetration often involve complex decision-making by self-interested private investors. In this work, we study the setting of privately developed and shared network capacity, where the power grid infrastructure, renewable generatio ...

Electricity-Access is a growing concern in developing countries of Sub-Saharan Africa where approximately 563million people (8% of the global population) lack electricity. Many use fossil-fuel generators and/or solar-home-systems (SHSs) with storage. Given the observed excess ...

Renewable energy has achieved high penetration rates in many areas, leading to curtailment, especially if existing network infrastructure is insufficient and energy generated cannot be exported. In this context, Distribution Network Operators (DNOs) face a significant knowledge g ...

This paper provides a study of the impact of curtailment schemes, applied when generation exceeds demand, on the Capacity Factor (CF) of wind generators, including the effect of spatial wind correlation among different locations. Moreover, we discuss how a round-robin curtailm ...
