Solution
From IKERLAN, we have collaborated with Iberdrola Renovables on the development of tools to facilitate techno-economic analysis of the joint operation of wind farms and storage systems in electrical power markets and network services. These tools offer the possibility to calculate the dimensioning needed to provide the network support services, maximising return on investment.

Customer benefits
The tools developed allow Iberdrola Renovables to evaluate the potential of the storage systems in different settings, both at national level and in other markets, opening up new business opportunities.
