Optimizing Energy Storage Participation in Primary
As renewable energy penetration increases, maintaining grid frequency stability becomes more challenging due to reduced system
Since 2009, there have been no official statistics on the electricity and energy sectors. Since the end of the 19th century, the production of electricity has been steadily growing in Venezuela. In between, there were some jolts due to prolonged droughts associated with the El Niño phenomenon.
Two well-known recovery plans, the Venezuelan Electricity Sector Recovery Plan (VESRP) and the Country Plan Electricity (CPE), are described in detail, and their challenges are discussed in the context of the energy transition paradigm. These plans have been proposed by non-governmental actors with different scopes and methodologies.
In this paper, the collapse of Venezuela's electricity system is analyzed. Two well-known recovery plans, the Venezuelan Electricity Sector Recovery Plan (VESRP) and the Country Plan Electricity (CPE), are described in detail, and their challenges are discussed in the context of the energy transition paradigm.
The government plan PDSEN 2020–2025 does not address the recovery of Venezuela's electricity system. It is concluded that pragmatism is compelling both plans to restore the hydro-thermal dispatch model in force since the mid-1980 s, leaving aside the economic and environmental advantages of decarbonizing the electricity sector from the start.
