METHOD FOR IMPLEMENTING POWER DELIVERY TRANSACTION FOR POTENTIAL ELECTRICAL OUTPUT OF INTEGRATED RENEWABLE ENERGY SOURCE AND ENERGY STORAGE SYSTEM FACILITY

摘要

Methods for implementing power delivery transactions between a buyer and a seller of electrical energy supplied to an electric grid by an integrated renewable energy source (RES) and energy storage system (ESS) of a RES-ESS facility are provided. Estimated total potential output of the RES is compared to a point of grid interconnect (POGI) limit to identify potential RES overgeneration, and the buyer is charged if potential RES overgeneration is less than potential overgeneration during one or more retrospective time windows. The method provides a basis for the RES-ESS facility owner to be paid for an estimated amount of energy that did not get stored as a result of a grid operator not fully discharging an ESS prior to the start of a new day.
