Abstract
⺠Electricity production in most remote islands is based on expensive oil imports. ⺠The contribution of wind power is restricted due to electrical grid limitations. ⺠The techno-economic behavior of a wind-based pumped hydro storage system is examined. ⺠Guaranteed energy amounts at peak load demand hours are provided by the proposed system. ⺠Based on the optimum solution renewables may cover 25% of the island's energy needs.
