In the first half year of the SMILE project, the project team on Samsø has examined different possible solutions for the installation of renewable energy plants (wind and/or solar power) and the sizes of them to fit the project aim of the establishment of a smart grid in the Ballen Marina to fit the given load with a 200 kW BESS battery.
At the end of the year 2017 the team had agreed on the best solution being the installation of solar power at the Ballen Marina with a size variation of 30-120 kW PV. The size will depend on the political decision for new buildings at the harbour, that will provide new roof space for PV. If the project will be limited to the existing roof space on the buildings at the marina, it will be possible to install 30-40 kW PV.
