ADEME commissioned Artelys and Gingko21 to conduct a life cycle analysis of use cases for the development of electricity storage. For each use case, Artelys studied the impact of adding storage to the electrical system. This impact is then translated into a life cycle analysis by Gingko21 in order to determine the environmental impact of the storage system.
This second study focuses on the electricity supply for an isolated site. To this end, various supply options are being studied for the isolated village of Kaw in French Guiana: fossil fuels via a diesel generator, renewable energy via the installation of photovoltaic panels with batteries, or a hybrid system. The village of Kaw and the various associated means of production have been modelled using Artelys Crystal Super Grid software.
