Can a large-scale solar battery energy storage system improve accident prevention and mitigation?

This work describes an improved risk assessment approach for analyzing safety designs in the battery energy storage system incorporated in large-scale solar to improve accident prevention and mitigation, via incorporating probabilistic event tree and systems theoretic analysis. The causal factors and mitigation measures are presented.

How will energy conservation impact Tunisia?

According to the revised Tunisian NDC, over the period of 2021–2030, the implementation of energy conservation programs will result in an average of 3.6% reduction in primary energy intensity and a 12% share of renewable energy in primary energy consumption until 2030 [ 8 ].

What is the energy system in Tunisia?

In BAU, the Tunisian energy system is based on the continuation of already legislated policies, current trends, existing plans and cost improvements in low-carbon technologies, without considering additional climate targets, with fossil fuels remaining the prime forms of energy until 2050 ( Table 1 ). Table 1.

Can energy sector restructuring help a Tunisian economy achieve deep decarbonization?

The study provides insights into the challenges to achieve the deep decarbonization of the Tunisian economy but also into the opportunities from energy sector-restructuring, including reduced energy import dependence and increased low-carbon investment.

Are existing risk assessment techniques applicable to storage and energy systems?

As such, it is important that existing available risk assessment techniques need to be improved for applicability to storage and energy system of the future, especially in large scale and utility. This paper evaluates methodology and consideration parameters in risk assessment by FTA, ETA, FMEA, HAZID, HAZOP and STPA.

How will the Tunisian energy system evolve?

The evolution of the Tunisian energy system in the next few decades will highly depend on the implementation of its Nationally Determined Contribution by 2030 and its potential long-term low-emission strategies.
