The first configuration involves no battery energy storage system, indicating that the program solely relies on thermal energy storage as the method for energy storage within the system.

A major consideration for land-use requirements is the PV energy density, or the energy yield per unit of land (or surface area) occupied by a PV system. The energy density is a function of the array power density (power per unit land area occupied) and the PV generation (energy generated per unit of power). For any given site

2.1. Electrical Energy Storage (EES) Electrical Energy Storage (EES) refers to a process of converting electrical energy into a form that can be stored for converting back to electrical energy when required. The conjunction of PV systems with battery storage can maximize the level of self-consumed PV electricity.

Estimate the PV-energy surplus stored at the existing ESS. The exact value depends on the difference between the PV-generator energy production and the energy absorbed by the local network as well as on the storage capacity of the energy storage configuration. Accordingly, calculate the value of the parameter "ε", using Eqs. (3), (15)
