Can battery energy storage systems be used in load frequency control?
In this paper, several new control strategies for employing the battery energy storage systems (BESSs) and demand response (DR) in the load frequency control (LFC) task are proposed.
Can battery energy storage improve frequency management?
In some renewable energy integration projects, battery energy storage systems have been widely used as a promising approach for frequency management. Renewable energy's higher penetration in power systems usually displaces conventional synchronous generators.
Are energy storage systems a better option for frequency regulation?
The energy storage systems can be regarded as a better option for frequency regulation due to the fast response and advanced control capability (Zhao et al., ; Kim et al., 2019c). In (Mercier et al., ), a control scheme of a BESS providing frequency regulation is addressed with the aim of minimizing the use of the BESS.
What are energy storage systems?
Energy storage systems, such as flywheels, pumped hydro storage systems, compressed air energy storage, Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS), and supercapacitors, can potentially be used to provide a rapid injection of power into the system via Primary Frequency Control (PFC) to balance between generation and load.
What is battery energy storage system (BESS)?
As a large scale of renewable energy generation including wind energy generation is integrated into a power system, the system frequency stability becomes a challenge. The battery energy storage system (BESS) is a better option for enhancing the system frequency stability.
How does a primary frequency control work?
Once the primary frequency control is activated, the frequency deviation decreases, and this helps to regulate the steady-state frequency stability to some extent. When the load increases to 12.5 MW in the system, the generator's active power reaches 81 MW (base power was 71 MW) as shown in Fig. 8 (b).
