New revenue streams for the health sector from battery energy storage systems. The ambitious target of reaching net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050 in the UK, which includes the decarbonisation of heat and electricity, means the increase of instantaneous power from non-dispatchable renewable energy sources (RESs).
Battery energy storage systems (BESS) can match loads with generation and can provide exibility to the grid. This study is proposing the health sector as a new exibility services provider for the grid through BESS. The health sector has large loads that run throughout the year, and by managing this load it can provide exibility to the grid.
There are several effective energy saving strategies at the hospital level, of lesser or greater complexity, which can reduce the amount of energy consumed and carbon emissions and increase energy efficiency.
It was found that the lowest levelized cost of energy (LCOE) for medium and large off-grid hospitals is for a hybrid system that includes RES, BESS, and DG. BESS can be combined with RES in grid-connected hospitals to take advantage of battery incentives and to have a viable investment with a short payback period .
Hospitals can use renewable energy to reduce energy costs and hedge against price increases (see box at left). Their commitment to using renewables sets them apart from their peers and demonstrates leadership in community health and environmental stewardship.
The model considers that the surplus energy generated by the PV panels under normal conditions, which is neither consumed by the hospital nor stored in the batteries, is sold to the power grid. Mustafa et al. studied a hospital's PV-Battery system. The study determines that the system is not economically viable.
