Resilience value of distributed PV and battery systems under grid-unreliability regimes
Description
This dataset contains the code and processed results that reproduce the findings of the article "Resilience value of distributed PV and battery systems under grid-unreliability regimes." The work sizes distributed photovoltaic and battery systems for grids that are present but unreliable, describing each grid by five statistically independent regime descriptors, the outage energy fraction, the mean outage duration, the duration variability, the predictability, and the correlation between outage timing and solar availability. Optimal designs are reported as two dimensionless ratios, the storage ratio and the PV ratio, so they transfer across sites and demand scales. The deposit includes the outage generator based on a Gamma-duration alternating-renewal process, the rolling-horizon dispatch controller compiled with numba, the NSGA-II multi-objective sizing routine, the techno-economic and life-cycle carbon models with the constants reported in the article, and the scripts that compute first-order and total-order Sobol indices from the second-order Saltelli sample. The processed regime-sweep output covers 1536 regime points and underlies the design maps, the sensitivity decomposition, and the two-regime Dhaka case study reported in the article. Scripts to regenerate the figures are included. The solar resource is derived from an hourly PVGIS series for Dhaka and is validated against an independent PVsyst simulation to within 2.3 percent. Instructions for reproducing the results and a list of software dependencies are provided in the README.
