Qatar's electricity, water, and cooling demands for 2019 are used as input in this study. The CSP with storage can increase the share of electricity supply by RES to 38.2%. Pump hydro and electro-fuels storage are the best alternatives to enhance the storage capacities of RES.
This study uses the EnergyPLAN tool to analyse Qatar's energy system. The model does this by analysing the economic and technical consequences of different resource integration and investments. EnergyPLAN is an input-output model, and its simulation procedures are described in Fig. 4.
The optimum CSP plant capacities based on the specified energy needs are 4198 MW and a 70 GWh thermal storage unit would help the output of this technology. Fig. 11. Hourly electricity demand and supply profile using CSP with 70 GWh storage. In choosing a hybrid system, economic and environmental factors such as cost and emissions are considered.
Wenergy’s energy storage systems meet globally recognized standards, including UL 1973, UL 9540, UL 9540A, IEC, CE, VDE, G99, and UN38.3, ensuring compliance with safety, EMC, and grid-connection requirements across North America, Europe, and other major markets.
