This paper summarizes capabilities that operational, planning, and resource-adequacy models that include energy storage should have and surveys gaps in extant models. Existing models that represent energy storage differ in fidelity of representing the balance of the power system and energy-storage applications. Modeling results are sensitive to these differences. The importance of capturing chronology can raise challenges in energy-storage modeling. Some models ‘decouple’ individual operating periods from one another, allowing for natural decomposition and rendering the models relatively computationally tractable. Energy storage complicates such a modeling approach. Improving the representation of the balance of the system can have major effects in capturing energy-storage costs and benefits.}, number={2}, journal={IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON POWER SYSTEMS}, publisher={Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE)}, author={Sioshansi, Ramteen and Denholm, Paul and Arteaga, Juan and Awara, Sarah and Bhattacharjee, Shubhrajit and Botterud, Audun and Cole, Wesley and Cortes, Andres and Queiroz, Anderson de and DeCarolis, Joseph and et al.}, year={2022}, month={Mar}, pages={860–875} } @article{sodano_decarolis_queiroz_johnson_2021, title={The symbiotic relationship of solar power and energy storage in providing capacity value}, volume={177}, ISSN={["1879-0682"]}, DOI={10.1016/j.renene.2021.05.122}, abstractNote={Ensuring power system reliability under high penetrations of variable renewable energy is a critical task for system operators. In this study, we use a loss of load probability model to estimate the capacity credit of solar photovoltaics and energy storage under increasing penetrations of both technologies, in isolation and in tandem, to offer new understanding on their potential synergistic effects. Increasing penetrations of solar PV alter the net load profile on the grid, shifting the peak net load to hours with little or no solar generation and leading to diminishing capacity credits for each additional increment of solar. However, the presence of solar PV decreases the duration of daily peak demands, thereby allowing energy-limited storage capacity to dispatch electricity during peak demand hours. Thus, solar PV and storage exhibit a symbiotic relationship when used in tandem. We find that solar PV and storage used together make a more significant contribution to system reliability: as much as 40% more of the combined capacity can be counted on during peak demand hours compared to scenarios where the two technologies are deployed separately. Our test case demonstrates the important distinction between winter and summer peaking systems, leading to significantly different seasonal capacity values for solar PV. These findings are timely as utilities replace their aging peaking plants and are taking energy storage into consideration as part of a low carbon pathway.}, journal={RENEWABLE ENERGY}, author={Sodano, Daniel and DeCarolis, Joseph F. and Queiroz, Anderson Rodrigo and Johnson, Jeremiah X.}, year={2021}, month={Nov}, pages={823–832} } @article{huang_sodano_leonard_luiso_fedkiw_2017, title={Cobalt-Doped Iron Sulfide as an Electrocatalyst for Hydrogen Evolution}, volume={164}, ISSN={["1945-7111"]}, DOI={10.1149/2.0761704jes}, abstractNote={Iron disulfide (FeS2) promises an earth-abundant, low-cost alternative to platinum group metals for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER), but its performance is currently limited by reactivity of active sites and poor electrical conductivity. Here we employ Ketjenblack (KB) as a support to create an Fe-based electrocatalyst with high-electrical conductivity and maximal active sites. Moreover, a systematic study on the role of cobalt (Co) dopant was carried out. Electrochemical results show enhancements in HER activity of Co-doped FeS2 [FexCo1−xS2, atomic content of Fe (x) = 0.98 – 0.32] in comparison to un-doped FeS2 in acidic electrolyte (pH = 0). The overpotential necessary to drive a current density of 10 mA/cm2 is −0.150 V and only decreases by 1 mV after 500 cycles of a durability test (cycling the potential between 0.0 and −0.15 V), indicating a long-term durability in acidic environment. This work suggests that FexCo1−xS2 offers a viable approach to improve the activity and durability of transition metal-sulfide electrocatalysts. © The Author(s) 2017. Published by ECS.
