Bhutan Solar Initiative Project (BSIP) aims towards achieving a sustainable energy supply for Bhutan through alternative renewable energy sources of solar grid integration. About 60 De-suups have been actively involved in th is six-month long project and have gained practical knowledge of installing solar PV systems through hands-on experience.
The hydrogen energy enriches the storage mode of solar PV power generation at a low cost, which can help PV power generation adjust energy fluctuation, promote the diversification of energy structure and ensure the security and reliability of energy supply. Compared to BES, solar PV power generation combined with HES (PV-HES) can avoid the
And the third advantage uses energy storage and Vehicle to Grid operations to smooth the fluctuating power supply fed into the power grid by intermittent renewable energy resources. This energy storage idea is of particular importance because, in the future, more renewable energy sources are integrated into the power grid worldwide. The research

A new Markov-chain-based energy storage model to evaluate power supply availability of photovoltaic generation is proposed. Since photovoltaic resources have high output variability subject to weather conditions, energy storage can be added in order to increase the availability of photovoltaic generation. Although adding energy storage is a promising strategy
