By Sifat Amin and Mehrdad Boloorchi Battery energy storage systems (BESS) are emerging in all areas of electricity sectors including generation services, ancillary services, transmission services, distribution services, and consumers' energy management services.
For instance, a Battery Energy Storage Medium, as illustrated in Fig. 1, consists of batteries and a battery management system (BMS) which monitors and controls the charging and discharging processes of battery cells or modules. Thus, the ESS can be safeguarded and safe operation ensured over its lifetime.
Although batteries (electrochemical ESSs) are proven options for most distribution network applications and have long lifetime and good efficiency, some options (e.g., NaS, Li-ion, NiCd, VRB, and ZnBr) are costly.
During transients, ESSs can play a major role in maintaining frequency stability by adjusting the grid frequency dynamically and hence improving the stability of the system . The regulation of grid frequency is investigated with a new SoC feedback control strategy in, for a system comprising high penetration of wind generation and ESS.
