Abstract
The planning of energy systems with a high share of renewable energy sources has become increasingly important due to environmental concerns and energy security challenges. However, the large-scale integration of renewables into the grid requires effective strategies to ensure stability and reliability. One proposed approach to addressing these challenges is the diversification of renewable energy technologies, including both dispatchable and non-dispatchable sources, combined with various energy storage solutions, such as daily and seasonal storage. In this study, an open-source energy modeling tool, PyPSA, is used to optimize the operation and planning of a hybrid energy system. Using energy modeling in PyPSA, optimal strategies for deploying photovoltaic (PV) systems and battery storage are examined to achieve the island’s climate targets, which include 25%, 50%, and 100% CO₂ emission reductions by 2030, 2040, and 2050, respectively. The findings of this research provide valuable insights into cost-effective and sustainable pathways for integrating renewable energy into isolated energy systems, contributing to long-term energy transition strategies.
