The traditional way of modeling battery storage as pumped hydro in an integrated resource plan is outdated. Current and future energy storage technologies provide multiple benefits that can be stacked on top of each other. IRP models must analyze these multiple benefits since capacity credit values decrease as renewable penetration increases. Because of these multiple benefits, hourly models in IRPs must be replaced by sub-hourly models.

(Thu, 17 Nov 2022) Iran holds some of the worldâs largest oil and natural gas reserves, but crude oil production has fallen since 2017 and natural gas production growth remains limited because of international sanctions and underinvestment. Iranâs crude oil production reached a 30-year low in 2020 as a result of sanctions and the impacts of the global COVID-19 pandemic, and output rose slightly in 2021 because global demand increased.
