Abstract (EN): Crete Island is rich in renewable energy resources such as wind and solar. Likewise other European territories, renewable sources already are being explored for power production. Currently a large amount of wind energy on Crete is curtailed during certain daily periods as a result of reduced demand and minimum operating levels on thermal generators. Reducing wind power curtailment magnitude requires additional sources of flexibility in the grid, and electric energy storage is one of them. This paper address wind generation curtailment minimization through the storage of wind energy surplus. NaS (sodium sulfura) battery modelling is used in this study in order to shift wind generation from off-peak to on-peak through a technical-economic analysis, considering the total annualized cost of the storage system and the wind power curtailment based on an annual basis. The obtained results are based on real data, which includes Crete Island demand, renewable and conventional power generation.
