As solar PV deployments continue to accelerate across insular power systems there will be many new insights and experiences that will supplement the findings, observations and recommendations captured throughout this report and summarized below.
Solar PV is being deployed at an accelerating rate in insular power systems for a number of reasons including reduced cost, improved versatility in deployment scale, and ease of maintenance and operations. The cost of solar PV system components continues to decrease and overall system costs are only moderately impacted by system scale.
The cost of electricity generated in insular power systems is often significantly higher than in large interconnected systems because of economies of scale, transportation costs, and energy markets that are largely controlled by a monopoly with few or no options for consumers.
Insular power systems serve as a global learning collaboratory for transforming the global energy system and accelerating the deployment of traditional and non-traditional renewable energy capabilities that integrate technology, policy, economics and regulation.
Frequency excursions beyond specified criteria are a significant challenge relative to assuring grid stability in insular power systems trying to reach 100% renewable energy from variable wind and solar PV resources. Other important concerns include fault protection, voltage control, and voltage stability (i.e., grid strength).
