Impacts of heat decarbonization on system adequacy considering increased meteorological sensitivity (2021)
Journal Article
Deakin, M., Bloomfield, H., Greenwood, D., Sheehy, S., Walker, S., & Taylor, P. C. (2021). Impacts of heat decarbonization on system adequacy considering increased meteorological sensitivity. Applied Energy, 298, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.apenergy.2021.117261

This paper explores the impacts of decarbonization of heat on demand and subsequently on the generation capacity required to secure against system adequacy standards. Gas demand is explored as a proxy variable for modelling the electrification of hea...

Assessing the Contribution of Nightly Rechargeable Grid-Scale Storage to Generation Capacity Adequacy (2017)
Journal Article
Edwards, G., Sheehy, S., Dent, C., & Troffaes, M. C. (2017). Assessing the Contribution of Nightly Rechargeable Grid-Scale Storage to Generation Capacity Adequacy. Sustainable Energy, Grids and Networks, 12, 69-81. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.segan.2017.09.005

This paper is concerned with assessing the contribution of grid-scale storage to generation capacity adequacy. Results are obtained for a utility-scale exemplar involving the Great Britain power system. All stores are assumed, for the purpose of capa...
