Maltese scientists design offshore virtual power plant integrating PV, wind, storage

The proposed virtual power plant (VPP) integrates a platform-to-ship (P2S) setup to electrify anchored and bunkering ships, while also providing surplus electricity to the country's grid. The system was designed to operate through a 200 MW floating wind farm and a 300 MW floating PV plant, with battery and compressed air systmes being used for energy storage. A Maltese-Chinese research group is proposing the development of an offshore mooring and power platform (OMPP) run by PV, wind, and energy storage in Malta's national waters. The proposed virtual power plant (VPP) integrates a platform-to-ship ...
