dc.description.abstractIn countries, such as Australia, with often vast distances between settlements and the mains power grid, insular power systems are the only solution. The most common of them is diesel generation that is relatively inexpensive, however it can have long term financial and environmental implications such as a large production of green house gases (GHGs). In the paper on an example of a remote water pump station, we compare microgrids of diesel generation only, combination of it with solar generation and an addition to the latter of a battery storage. It is demonstrated that addition of renewable energy to diesel generation can be available alternative for insular power systems, resulting in drastic reduction of diesel fuel consumption, emission of GHGs and reduction of total operating and maintenance costs.
