Abstract:

The report focuses on elaborating and testing a method suitable for a synthesis of streamflows, which can be used for simulating large number of streamflows of stochastic nature to be used in statistical examinations of a computer simulation system. The stream inflows to a reservoir, which gathers water in producing electrical energy by a micro hydroelectric power plant. This renewable energy source is connected to an electrical microgrid located in few buildings being premises of a research and education center. The proposed methods of synthesis have been also adopted to generation of wind speed and insolation sequences, another media used in producing renewable energy. A matched block bootstrap method has been chosen to form synthetic sequences. Lall and Sharma method and its modification have been used. Both methods were found to produce synthetic sequences with satisfactory statistical properties as compared to real measured data gathered in periods of several to some dozen of years. Several modifications of the methods are proposed.
