What is the EnergyPLAN model for Portugal in ?
Results of the ENERGYPLAN model for Portugal in in the SP scenario. The emissions for all scenarios are close to zero (well below the target of target 4.3Mton), as the natural gas-fired plant is only used for a very few hours of the year. The cost of the system is, at worst, lower than . 6.
How much energy will Portugal produce in ?
According to the NECP (which also includes the mainland and islands), the power generation sector is expected to reduce emissions by 83 % in compared to , so the value considered for should be 4.34 Mton. As this study considers only the values of mainland Portugal, the value to be achieved should be lower.
What are the objectives of the modelling of the Portuguese power system?
The objectives of the modelling of the Portuguese power system are the following: • The prediction of the energy mix for . • The prediction of the utilisation of the storage capacity, namely with projections of the energy consumed by pumped hydro storage (PHS). • The prediction of CO 2
What is the installed capacity of the Portuguese energy system?
By the end of , total installed capacity in the Portuguese system was 17.83 GW [RENa15]. The installed capacities per generation technology are presented in table 2.2 [RENa15]. The capacity of the SSG was MW and of the OSG was MW.
Why is energy storage important in Portugal?
therefore essential to meet European targets.Energy storage installed capacity in Portugal is still predominantly based on hydropower pumping, which is today over 3 GW, and will increase to 4,164 GW whe the Alto-Tâmega dam is completed this year. However, this paradigm is about to shift with the democratization of energy sto
