Study area Cabo Verde is an archipelago comprising 10 islands c. 600 km west of the coast of Senegal, West Africa. The island of Maio is one of the smallest of the nine inhabited islands of Cabo Verde, with an area of 269 km 2 and a population of c. 6,980 inhabitants (Instituto Nacional de Estatística de Cabo Verde, 2015).).

The Economic Community for West African States (ECOWAS) has contributed US$ 1 million to provide daily nutritious meals to 90,000 school children in Cabo-Verde during the 2023-2024 school year. This contribution comes from ECOWAS'' Regional Food Security Reserve built up in February 2013 to respond to food security

Cape Verde''s Special Project Management Unit is inviting bids to design, supply and install four energy storage systems (ESS). The ESS will be located on Fogo island (2.08 MW/2.08 MWh), Santo Antao island (1.4 MW/2MWh), Sao Nicolau island (0.5 MW/1MWh), and Maio island (0.5 MW/1MWh).

In the context of the energy transition, where the number and diversity of the grid-related research is ever expanding, we propose a reference system based on

As a final remark, in Figure 8 is presented the socio-economical impacts of both scenarios. It can be noted that the difference when considering pumped storage and correspondent additional renewable energy generation costs from the Economical Scenario (125€/MWh) to the 50% Renewables Scenario (127€/MWh) is only 1,5%.

Both the monthly and annual values of these parameters are summarized in Table 2. In Santiago island, during the year 2014, the annual average wind speed was 8.57 m/s with a standard deviation close to 3.29 m/s. The monthly mean wind speeds varied between 4.95 m/s in August and 12.48 m/s in February.
