Economic and environmental benefits of increasing the renewable energy sources in the power system

Increasing Renewable Energy Sources (RES), impact the power system. Moreover, the system equilibrium and stability are difficult because constant generation cannot be generated from RES concerning conventional energy sources. This paper studies the effect of RES on the power system through the actua...

This paper studies the effect of RES on the power system through the actual application of the Egyptian power system. The strategy of the Egyptian power system aims at increasing the proportion of RES, especially, Wind Power (WP) and photovoltaic (PV). Therefore, Different operation scenarios are presented to illustrate the impact of RES on the Egyptian network. Also, the economic and environmental benefits of increasing the Penetration of Renewable Power Generation are presented by calculating the expected annual reductions of CO2 emission (ER), certified emission reduction (CER) and the fuel-saving amount. Therefore, how to decrease the cost of electricity (DCOE) model when calculating the cost-benefit analyses from RES.
