StorageGen

Model interface of StorageGen

This component is a generic model for storage available with any energy vector.

IO StorageGen

Fig. 60 I/O StorageGen

The stored quantity (ie electrical energy, thermal energy, fluid or material mass) and the corresponding flows (resp. power or mass flow rates) are set by the energy vector managed by the bus it is connected to.

Hence the units are managed by the energy vector: use the following, instead of the IS Units leading to scaling troubles during solving step

  • Mass Flow : kg/h

  • Power flow : MW

  • Mass : kg

  • Energy : MWh

  • Time : h
