An isolated zero-carbon microgrid is powered exclusively by renewable energy sources. It utilizes energy storage technologies, such as long-duration batteries or hydrogen storage, to mitigate intermittency and ensure a reliable power supply, allowing it to meet demand even under conditions of low production or high variability.
The development challenges of achieving zero-carbon microgrids can be summarized as follows: Compared to the cost of renewable power generation investment, the investment cost of energy storage is much higher. It is hard to build a zero-carbon microgrid in an economical way without cheap energy storage.
Stability analysis and control techniques should be studied especially for the zero-carbon microgrid with grid-forming and grid-following converters. Large-scale low-price energy storage and the corresponding control techniques for feasibility, flexibility, and stability enhancement of the zero-carbon microgrids should be developed.
As discussed earlier, large-scale low-price energy storage plays an important role in achieving zero-carbon microgrids, including improving system feasibility, flexibility, and stability. However, such a kind of technology is still missing. Table 2 lists the power ranges and capital costs of PHES, CAES, HES, TES, LABES, and LIBES.
