IMPLEMENTATION OF RENEWABLE ENERGY STORAGE 3
Introduction
The idea behind the prerequisite for genuine clean vitality speculation is grounded on the
need for concern around climate alter. Climate alter may be a genuine and unmistakable problem
and nowadays more individuals accept that a more strong utilize of clean vitality is one of the
arrangements for anticipating climate alter Arrangements are planned based on the examination
of the properties that influence the territorial assessment of by and large acknowledged criteria.
An elective combination of conditions can modify the arrangements (Ren, 2017). These traits
include different criteria to be input into the decision-making prepare condition. A few properties
to consider, in spite of the fact that not all, are starting costs, working costs, work concentrated,
seen adequacy, biological effect, natural components and efficiency(Dahleh, 2015).
Think about bolsters the neighborhood specialists in planning approaches by building
elective scenarios for contributing to atomic vitality or renewable energies. The Bayesian arrange
(BN) technique. India has had independence from 1947 and still there more than 45 million
villages and households in rural India that still has no access to electricity (Hatami, 2016). Even
after the enactment of the electricity actin 2003, adopted by the central government, there are
still numerous rural villages that haven't seen electricity for the past decade'. In this research, I
propose solar-powered microgrids as a solution for rural electrification (Yeniyurt, 2015). Let us
consider the state of Kerala where there are still thousands of villages that still have no access to
electricity.
What I am proposing is setting up of microgrids in those parts of the villages where they
can use solar energy as a source of electricity. On average, a single household has an electric

IMPLEMENTATION OF RENEWABLE ENERGY STORAGE 4
charge of 800-1200 Rs (16-24 AUD) per month. If these households are using solar-powered
microgrids, then they can cut those cost to less than half of the original price and still use the
saved electricity from the solar energy storage devices set up in their houses (Rasmussen, 2015).
The research and the interviews and survey was undertaken in a Kerala village in the southern
part of India. And the region is illustrated using the diagram below;
Figure 1: Showing the community of Kerala (Rasmussen, 2015).

IMPLEMENTATION OF RENEWABLE ENERGY STORAGE 5
Purpose of the project
Since the main issue here is that these villages and households couldn't afford the initial costs
and the overall expenses to the setup of these micro-grids (Song, 2017).I am suggesting
approaching local banks and Kerala state government in building up of policies by which these
expenses can be covered by the government and the bank as a joint venture or the expenses for
the initial setup for each household can be given to them as loans or by another type of funding
by local entrepreneurs with suitable subsidies (Guerrero, 2015). Based on this objective these
research questions have been developed:
 Will the state government and the local banks help in building up of policies, so that the
residents of a locality that has very limited access to electricity can set up an energy
storage device?
 If the state government is willing to set up microgrids to the off-grid communities and if
the local entrepreneurs are willing to finance any further additional funding for this
project, what are the terms and conditions to be approved by both parties to get the green
light to start this project?
 If the banks are willing to provide loans for the project, what are the various terms and
conditions they are looking for?

IMPLEMENTATION OF RENEWABLE ENERGY STORAGE 6
EXPECTED PROJECT OUTCOMES
The most critical outcome that is expected at the end of the project is clean and cheap
electricity for the off-grid communities that have limited access to electricity(Pode, 2015). Also,
by setting up an energy storage device for each house at a locality, they can use renewable
energy source like solar energy to generate electricity at their own house and store them when
they do not have access from the grid (Ribeiro, 2015). By doing so, they can cut the costs as well
as give back excess energy when they do not need it (Liu, 2017). If a single off-grid community
is successful on this then, multiple communities can join on this venture and thereby save a
considerable amount of power and money (Krishnan, 2015). This project would bring a positive
change in both the environmental and economic aspects of a community.
METHODOLOGY TO BE ADOPTED
Basically, this approach of Bayesian network is just a decision network which operates
like a probabilistic acyclic graphical model which is employed in solar renewable electricity
storage (Isa, 2016). The most procedures in Artificial Insights, to be specific Artificial Neural
Systems (ANN) Hereditary Calculations (GAs), Fluffy Rationale and half breed models -which
combine two or more methods-, have as of now been connected to unravel numerous issues in
renewable vitality (Weir, 2015). The inquiry about in this course is growing exceptionally
rapidly and an enormous amount of works have as of now been done (Guan, 2015).
For instance, research has been wiped out the applications of ANN within the forecast of
meteorological factors, such as sun-powered radiation, temperature and wind, which are

IMPLEMENTATION OF RENEWABLE ENERGY STORAGE 7
pertinent to numerous renewable vitality forms. Moreover, applications in Photovoltaic (PV) and
Sun powered Warm Vitality frameworks, as well as numerous other renewable vitality fields,
have to been performed (Srinivas, 2015). GAs have been utilized for optimization of Sun
oriented Warm frameworks and other renewable vitality frameworks (Agarwal, 2015).
There are several mechanisms which are employed in Bayesian Network
Cognitive matrix development
A cognitive survey was done among the Oregon electricity authorities (Agarwal, 2015). The
indication of whether the results at positive or negative was answered seven experts interaction.

For a Probabilistic stage
The data history of Oregon was examined and tabulated for all variables. Using Netica
software so beneficial since it allows us to tabulate data that is incorporated into our model
(Bocklisch, 2016). Netica computers the marginal and conditional probabilities of all the
variables are based on that Netica software which has incorporates data (Bocklisch, T2015). All

investment were not continuous (Badge, 2017). The low medium and high intervals for all states
on all variables, the experts set up and verified them.

Basically, to ensure that this project is fully accepted by the locals in KERALA
COMMUNITIES there are several interviews which will help in determining whether the local
community will either accept the project or not.

IMPLEMENTATION OF RENEWABLE ENERGY STORAGE 12
A questionnaire conducted in the COMMUNITIES IN KERALA
The questionnaire conducted in the COMMUNITIES IN KERALA to help know their
take on the usage and storage of the renewable sources of renewable electrical energy is
presented as below;
Interview Residents of Kerala community
Energy Usage in KERALA Communities
This short questionnaire will help to know how much energy is used in rural and what
sources of energy are used.
1. What fuel is used in most homes in KERALA?
For heating the house? Electrical energy
For cooking? Wood energy
For heating water? Wood energy
2. If your home uses electricity what company provides this service
Hydro power from Idukki (780.00 MW) in river Periyar and Idamalayar (75 MW) in
river Idamalayar both in Kerala community.
3. What is the raw material used by these Company
Because the source of electrical energy is hydroelectric power the raw material is basically
water
4. If you have wood or coal delivered where is this material sourced from? Where are the
forests or coal pits that provide it?

There are about 10 people living in the household
Interview the bank officials
1. From your end which is the best storage system can you finance from the list below;
Pumped hydroelectric power?
Compressed air system?
Battery?
We as the bank official we would suggest the implementation of pumped hydroelectric power
because of high electrical energy stored. It looks more serious to invest on as opposed to the
others.
2. What percentage of the whole project selected can you finance?
80% of the whole project
3. What will be your interest rate for the percentage of the project you agree to provide for the
implementation of storage of electrical energy in Kerala?
2.2% per month
4. Why do you think it is good to sponsor such a project in this community?
It is better to give back to the community, through providing funds to implement this project
most of the households will spend less on electricity and almost every household will have an
electrical power connection. This will also open up this village.

IMPLEMENTATION OF RENEWABLE ENERGY STORAGE 15
5. Apart from hydroelectric power, which technology can be your second in the priority list and
why?
Apart from hydroelectric power, we as the finance officers we have a battery as the second in the
electrical energy storage. This is because the battery will help in the storage of a lot of electrical
energy produced from solar and windmill plants (Gaur, 2018). And since this community is
densely forested it would be better to maximize the electrical power production from these two.
6. So if the first priority is done, are you willing to help in implementing your second priority
and at what percentage?
Yes of course. And for the second project, the bank will sponsor it not lending money to the
implementation. This is a good way to give back to the community for having trust in banking
with our bank.
Interview electricity board
Why is renewable energy storage important in Kerala?
Energy storage in a general sense progresses the way we create, convey, and use power
electrical power in the communities of Kerala. Storage of Energy assists amid crises like power
blackouts from storms, gear flaws, mishaps or indeed terrorist assaults. But the game-changing
nature of energy storage is its capacity to adjust power supply and request instantaneously -
within milliseconds - which makes power systems more resilient, effective, and cleaner than ever
before (Panackal, 2016).
Renewable energy storage that reduces costs in the Kerala community
Cost saving in energy storage can be achieved through two essential ways. The first is by
bringing down the general costs of power providers (Thomas, 2016). The second way is through

IMPLEMENTATION OF RENEWABLE ENERGY STORAGE 16
allowing the customers to evade premium pricing or the peak demand. The insiders of the
company call this saving money on both of the electric meters (Sahoo, 2016). But large storage
deployment can save clients' money in excess ways. Blackouts that are shorter for the occupants
after a storm or hardware failure will help to save both the cash and the lives and minimal
blackouts are generally the cause of financial losses (Sreedharan, 2018).
How safe is the renewable energy storage technology in the Kerala community?
The technology is safe. The storage of energy has been our involvement in the power
network since the 1930s. Reality implies that energy storage contains up to roughly 2% Indian
generation capacity, and enjoys a record that is safe that is comparable or a way preferred than
other power production, transmission or management strategies (MacPherson, 2018).
How clean is the energy storage to the environment of Kerala Community?
The energy storage is very clean because it has no direct emission. No pipes are also needed. Its
frameworks need a negligible footprint. It reuses in electricity(Gopal, 2017). But energy storage
will be to assist in cutting emissions because it involves much the offloads conventional
production.
What are the peak shaving and the energy storage fit in for this in Kerala community
Amid of times top power demand like air conditioners inclined up on days that are hot.
Numerous charge utilities clients excess because they need to slope up costly extra power
generation in order to meet the request (Gillott, 2017). The charges are known as the time of use

IMPLEMENTATION OF RENEWABLE ENERGY STORAGE 17
or peak. Cost because they're tied exclusively to the time the client makes use of the power
(Olabi, 2017). For example, numerous family units today the dishwashers are run like appliances
and clothing machines up to six-hour delays or in the midnight to evade this power costs. And
save the cash on their consumption bills(Zhang, 2017). The workings of energy storage are in
comparable ways, but due to clients choosing the energy storage, the time to purchase and the
time to use the power, a client is liberated from premium charges (Srebro, 2017). Clients
normally buy that power on the off-peak prices in order to utilize amid crests which looks like
getting an airline flight.
How much are households in Kerala community willing to pay to use only renewable
energy
4.7% of the current electricity bill to switch to renewable from other sources of electricity.
Does willingness to pay to vary significantly across household groups
Yes, heterogeneity. Difference drivers of conditional WTP and market entry. Income entry
decision but not level.
Do a general attitude towards the environment influences demand renewable energy?
Environmental concern + Membership in environmental organizations

IMPLEMENTATION OF RENEWABLE ENERGY STORAGE 18
Interviews Elected Officials
For the implementation of the renewable energy storage in the Kerala community, there are
other particular individuals who also will be interviewed so that their thoughts on the project is
heard (SreeVishnu, 2016). Some of these people may include local authorities (Starcher, 2018).
And the below are some of the interviews for these elected officials.
1. Why do you think this project will be better for the Kerala locals?
This project will help in reducing the cost of electrical energy and also ensure that the
electrical power is at every household.
2. How will this project help the Kerala project economically?
With the provision of electrical energy at a relatively lower cost will help in the opening
community which will enable sprouting off industries which will provide job
opportunities to the local.
3. According to you which is the best technology is to be implemented for storage of
electrical energy in this community?
According to us, the pumped hydroelectric power is the best for this region since there
are several rivers which can supply water for storage. Example of these rivers includes
Idamalayar, Kallada, Kuttiyadi, Periyar among others as seen in table 2 above.

IMPLEMENTATION OF RENEWABLE ENERGY STORAGE 19
SURVEY about renewable energy storage in KARALA community.
Penetration of renewable energy storage has increased the cost of capital is high to suit
the top stack demand and expensive venture for capital in order to progress that network reliable
and smart network initiative leading to the development of electrical energy storage
framework(Bernal-Agustín, 2018). Especially the winds, solar energy sources which are
renewable have endless potential to diminish that reliance on coal (Robert, 2017). Fossil fuels
and the carbon dioxide electric division emission. In any case, the discontinuous renewable
nature vitality causes the source to control issues of quality(Contreras, 2018). That is soundness,
voltage direction and also receptive control. Recompenses also the integration of the variable era
into the lattice. Also the sudden alter in line and load blame leads to a sudden plunge in the
framework voltage (Lakaparampil, 2015). That sudden alter in the stack request and
insufficiency power production by the renewable vitality is competed for source by the
utilization of energy storage framework (Nair, 2017).
Electrical storage system
This EES system store the energy at times of low demand and low generation of cost. It also
supplies the grid at times of high demand, high generation cost or no availability of generation
(Honnery, 2016). The energy can be stored in various ways as given below
 In water reservoir as potential gravitational energy
 In the air as compressed energy
 In batteries and flows as electrochemical
 In fuels cells as chemical energy
 In flywheels as kinetic energy

IMPLEMENTATION OF RENEWABLE ENERGY STORAGE 20
 In inductors as magnetic energy
 In capacitors as electric energy
The principle of operation, main components and its overview of several available electrical
energy storage technologies shown in Fig. 2 are presented below.
Figure 6: Showing the electrical storage system (Honnery, 2016).
Mechanical energy storage
There are so many mechanical energy storage initiatives which can be employed in the
storage of the mechanical energy in Kerala (Sunyaev, 2018). A survey was conducted to confirm
if this is true and which types is currently in operational and which ones can be added to the
community to make them accept the project so that the renewable energy storage can be

IMPLEMENTATION OF RENEWABLE ENERGY STORAGE 21
implemented in the Kerala community in the southern part of India (Bacha, 2016). The
mechanical energy storage which the survey will revolve around include the following;
i. Pumped hydroelectric power
ii. Compressed air energy storage
Pumped hydroelectric power
The pumped hydroelectric is large scale storage of energy framework. The pumped hydroelectric
energy framework is illustrated in figure 3.it converts the electrical energy from the water
energy. Amid low power request (Riemann, 2017). That water moves from low supply to high
supply and with the use of high power request, that water moves from an upper supply to a
reservoir of low supply that turns the electrical energy to turn the turbines to generate that energy
(Nojavan, 2016). The energy that is stored is relative to the upper water supply volume and the
height of the reservoir.
Figure 7: Showing Pumped hydroelectric power (Riemann, 2017).
In India (Kerala community) there are several dams which are employed in the production of
electrical energy but none of these dames is employed in the storage of electrical energy (what is
known as pumped hydroelectric power) (Hvelplund, 2015). Some of these dams used in the
production of electrical energy in the Kerala community includes the following;

And from the Kerala map give below some main hydroelectric dam are given below;

IMPLEMENTATION OF RENEWABLE ENERGY STORAGE 24
Figure 8: Showing position of the existing hydroelectric dams in Kerala community (Rasmussen,
2015).
With the above survey done in Kerala community about the hydroelectric dam, it shows
that more electrical energy is produced through this method of generation of electrical energy.
But there are is a serious variation of production of electrical energy in the region if the water is
not pumped into a large enough reservoir (having a big capacity). Therefore if this can be built in
every dam used in the production of electrical energy would be high when demanded and this

IMPLEMENTATION OF RENEWABLE ENERGY STORAGE 25
will result into a relatively cheaper electrical energy in the region (Mathew, 2018). And due to
the low cost of electrical energy almost every household would propose the implementation of
this method of storage of electrical energy. This will also be cheaper since there are already
existing hydroelectric dams.
Compressed air storage
This energy framework can be able to give a huge energy storage delivery of about 100 MW
within a single unit. The diagram of a CAES framework is illustrated in figure 4. Primarily
comprises of the major five components.
 Generator set or the motor
 Discuss compressor which contains the cooler
 Tall with more weigh turbines
 Cavity
 Assistants such as fuel storage with worm unit exchange
The CAES framework works under the premise of gas- turbine innovation. It disconnects that
expansion and compressed cycle containing the gas turbine into two different processes. Then
the high electrical energy is demanded the compressor will be drawn from the underground
caverns, it is heated and the air will be expanded via high-pressure turbines. This can be
illustrated in the following diagrams.

IMPLEMENTATION OF RENEWABLE ENERGY STORAGE 26
Figure 9: Showing Compressed air storage (Mathew, 2018).
This method of energy storage is currently not in the Kerala community and basically, the
electrical energy stored in this method is much less as compared to pumped hydroelectric power
(Lu,2015).
Electrochemical energy in batteries
Another serious survey was done on electrical storage using electrochemical energy in
batteries. In the Kerala community almost every household have an electrical battery which they
used as a source of electrical power (Montoya, 2017). But still, batteries can be employed in the
storage of electrical energy from renewable sources like solar as well as wind energy. But
because most of the regions in this area are full of forest which acts as windbreakers thus use of
windmills in most places, windmills are not as common as other forms of energy production.
Therefore batteries are used in the large scale of electrical energy storage from solar and
windmill. For the solar production plant the regions where these are situated are shown in the
diagram below;

IMPLEMENTATION OF RENEWABLE ENERGY STORAGE 27
Figure 10: Showing areas where the solar plants are situated in Kerala community (Rasmussen,
2015).
Currently, there is a project about the installation of a windmill in the Kerala community
which will supply a lot of electrical power of 22MW, this is known as Kanjikode windmill
power plant. This power plant will be installed with lots of banks of battery to help in the storage
of electrical energy which will help in maintaining the constant production of power at 22MW.
This will be very significant since there is a lot of variation of the strength of the wind in this

IMPLEMENTATION OF RENEWABLE ENERGY STORAGE 28
area (Tarascon, 2015). It hence means that there will be sometimes when the electrical energy
produced from the windmill is much below 22MW when the wind is low and there will be
sometimes when the production of electrical energy is 22MW or more (Savier, 2018).
So at these times when the electrical power produced hits or exceeds the target then the
battery is employed in the storage of electrical energy and the stored electrical energy is used
during calm days when the production is very low (Koduvath, 2016). From the above questioner
and survey, it is highly possible to construct a Bayesian Network based on the probability of the
implementation of the Bayesian Network. And this can be done as below:
During the construction of these Networks, it is recommended that we first recall that the
joint distribution of random variable A_0, A_1, …, A_n, denoted as P(A_0, A_1, …, A_n), is
equal to P(A_1 | A_2, …, A_n) * P(A_2 | A_3, …, A_n) * … * P(A_n). And this is considered
as a factorized probability representation. And because this is a N , therefore, the localized
probability is given by

Figure 11: Showing the Bayesian Network on the probability of the implementation of renewable
energy storage in the Kerala community.
From the above first Bayesian Network, it can be clearly seen that the implementation of
the renewable electrical energy storage initiative is very significant for the Kerala community.
And as discussed above implementation of this project will lead to several advantages to the
locals in the Kerala community (Baredar, 2016). Therefore this first Bayesian gives illustrates
the probability of implementation of renewable energy storage initiative in Kerala community.

Based on the survey which was conducted in the Kerala community about the important
renewable storage techniques in this region. The results from the survey can help in making a
probability decision on whether to implement this storage in the region or not (Khare, 2019). As
from the survey, the most common type of renewable energy which can be employed in this
community is the battery which is used in solar and wind power plant. The second common
technique is the pumped hydroelectric power, this is more relevant to be implemented in this
community since there are a lot of rivers in the community (Sujatha, 2017). Therefore from these
result, we can construct another Bayesian Network as below;

Figure 12: Showing the Bayesian Network on the probability of the implementation of renewable

From the above constructed Bayesian Network, it can be seen clearly from the survey we
can use the Bayesian Network (probability aspect) to check on which renewable energy
technique is required in the Kerala community to be implemented (Azelee, 2017). Again the
survey illustrates the source of finance to aid in the implementation of the renewable energy
storage in that particular region. There are two techniques which can be employed in renewable
energy storage (Reji, 2016). These techniques are two battery (electrical) and pumped hydraulic
power (mechanical). These were favourable in the community since there are already existing
windmill and solar plant (use battery in storage). Pumped hydroelectric power was favourite
because of the several rivers in the community (Sujatha, 2017). These then prove that there is a
need to implement renewable energy storage in the Kerala community. And it is better to know
the source of finance which is given in the Bayesian Network as the bank.
Conclusion
In summary, it is very crucial to use the Bayesian Network as a probability parameter to
help predict some issues. In this project, there were several questionnaires as well as surveys
which were conducted when the results were used to build a perfect Bayesian network. The
Bayesian networks have given above after the survey and questionnaire illustrates that it is
highly important to implement the use of renewable energy storage in the Kerala community.
The construction of these storage techniques will help in reducing the cost of the electrical
energy in the community and also give reliable electrical energy to the locals. This will help in
opening the community hence promotes economic developments in this particular locality. So
