Abstract Energy storage batteries can smooth the volatility of renewable energy sources. The operating conditions during power grid integration of renewable energy can affect the performance and failure risk of battery energy storage system (BESS). However, the current modeling of grid-connected BESS is overly simplistic, typically only considering state of charge (SOC) and power constraints. Detailed lithium (Li)-ion battery cell models are computationally intensive and impractical for real-time applications and may not be suitable for power grid operating conditions. Additionally, there is a lack of real-time batteries risk assessment frameworks. To address these issues, in this… More >

Abstract To mitigate the impact of wind power volatility on power system scheduling, this paper adopts the wind-storage combined unit to improve the dispatchability of wind energy. And a three-level optimal scheduling and power allocation strategy is proposed for the system containing the wind-storage combined unit. The strategy takes smoothing power output as the main objectives. The first level is the wind-storage joint scheduling, and the second and third levels carry out the unit combination optimization of thermal power and the power allocation of wind power cluster (WPC), respectively, according to the scheduling power of WPC and… More >

Abstract Power quality improvements help guide and solve the problems of inefficient energy production and unstable power output in wind power systems. The purpose of this paper is mainly to explore the influence of different energy storage batteries on various power quality indicators by adding different energy storage devices to the simulated wind power system, and to explore the correlation between system entropy generation and various indicators, so as to provide a theoretical basis for directly improving power quality by reducing loss. A steady-state experiment was performed by replacing the wind wheel with an electric motor,… More >

Abstract As a flexible resource, energy storage plays an increasingly significant role in stabilizing and supporting the power system, while providing auxiliary services. Still, the current high demand for energy storage contrasts with the fuzzy lack of market-oriented mechanisms for energy storage, the principle of market-oriented operation has not been embodied, and there is no unified and systematic analytical framework for the business model. However, the dispatch management model of energy storage in actual power system operation is not clear. Still, the specific scheduling process and energy storage strategy on the source-load-network side could be more… More >

Abstract There is a growing need to explore the potential of coal-fired power plants (CFPPs) to enhance the utilization rate of wind power (wind) and photovoltaic power (PV) in the green energy field. This study developed a load regulation model for a multi-power generation system comprising wind, PV, and coal energy storage using real-world data. The power supply process was divided into eight fundamental load regulation scenarios, elucidating the influence of each scenario on load regulation. Within the framework of the multi-power generation system with the wind (50 MW) and PV (50 MW) alongside a CFPP… More > Graphic Abstract

Abstract To address the scheduling problem involving energy storage systems and uncertain energy, we propose a method based on multi-stage robust optimization. This approach aims to regulate the energy storage system by using a multi-stage robust optimal control method, which helps overcome the limitations of traditional methods in terms of time scale.

Abstract Energy storage systems (ESS) and permanent magnet synchronous generators (PMSG) are speculated to be able to exhibit frequency regulation capabilities by adding differential and proportional control loops with different control objectives. The available PMSG kinetic energy and charging/discharging capacities of the ESS were restricted. To improve the inertia response and frequency control capability, we propose a short-term frequency support strategy for the ESS and PMSG. To this end, the weights were embedded in the control loops to adjust the participation of the differential and proportional controls based on the system frequency excursion. The effectiveness of More >

Abstract This paper studies the feasibility of a supply-side wind-coal integrated energy system. Based on grid-side data, the load regulation model of coal-fired power and the wind-coal integrated energy system model are established. According to the simulation results, the reasons why the wind-coal combined power supply is difficult to meet the grid-side demand are revealed through scenario analysis. Based on the wind-coal combined operation, a wind-coal-storage integrated energy system was proposed by adding lithium-iron phosphate battery energy storage system (LIPBESS) to adjust the load of the system. According to the four load adjustment scenarios of grid-side… More >
