Abstract

Meeting decarbonization goals requires taking significant action on electricity systems, which are a major source of CO2 emissions. Decarbonizing island electricity systems raises additional challenges due to their heavy historical dependence on fossil fuels and strict power-reserve and reliability requirements. To address this challenge, this paper presents a comprehensive optimization model for long-term capacity planning of island electricity systems. Our model determines an optimal mix of generation and transmission capacity to satisfy energy demand at least cost while respecting the strict technical constraints that are inherent in island systems. In addition, our model considers the use of thermal and renewable generation, electric vehicles providing electricity-system services, batteries, pumped-hydroelectric storage, and ac and high-voltage dc transmission lines.
