5 FAQs about [Sustainable power systems Curaçao]
Does Curaçao have a potential for wind energy storage?
In this study, Curaçao is selected as the prototypical location for tropical SIDS. This island has significant potential for wind energy, and already has 30 MW of installed capacity [ 5 ]. In this analysis, the storage capacity for short-term and seasonal energy storage was estimated ( Section 1 of the Supporting Information - SI).
Is green ammonia energy storage feasible in Curaçao (Caribbean SIDS)?
Green ammonia seasonal energy storage is feasible in Curaçao (Caribbean SIDS). Absorption Enhanced Haber-Bosch using Ru-catalysts results in a LCOE of 0.13 USD/kWh. Wind energy combined with ammonia energy storage leads to a carbon footprint of just 0.03 kg CO 2 /kWh.
How much energy does Curaçao need?
Peak demand for Curaçao is estimated to be 164 MW, based upon consumption [ 50 ], corrected for energy consumption increases in recent years [ 62 ]. Synergy between N 2 production, NH 3 production, and NH 3 power generation has been assessed by Aziz et al. [ 63 ], resulting in a reduced energy consumption of N 2 production.
What is the peak energy demand for Curaçao?
Sufficient SOFC–H capacity was considered in the design to handle the peak demand. That is when no direct wind energy or battolyser energy storage is available. Peak demand for Curaçao is estimated to be 164 MW, based upon consumption [ 50 ], corrected for energy consumption increases in recent years [ 62 ].
How much does coal cost in Curaçao?
The coal price was estimated in the range of 42.7–96.5 USD ton −1, based on shipping tariffs from Puerto Bolivar to Curaçao [ 68] and current spot prices [ 69 ]. For the natural gas power plant, LNG (liquefied natural gas) spot prices are taken at 8–13 USD MMBtu −1 (8.44–13.72 USD Gj −1) based upon current trends [ 70 ].
