Modeling and Efficient Control of Microturbine Generation System With Battery Energy Storage for Sensitive Loads

Microturbine generation system is one of the most promising and a fast growing distributed generation sources. It is used in various applications thanks to high efficiency, quick start and high reliability. Combination of the microturbine and storage system (e.g. battery bank) is desirable selection to satisfy the load requirements under all conditions and hence the battery bank can play an imp...

An Energy-Based Control Strategy for Battery Energy Storage Systems: A Case Study on Microgrid Applications

Battery energy storage systems (BESSs) with proportional-integral (PI) control methods have been widely studied in microgrids (MGs). However, the performance of PI control methods might be unsatisfactory for BESSs due to the nonlinear characteristics of the system. To overcome this problem, an energy-based (EB) control method is applied to control the converter of a BESS in this study. The EB m...

Wind energy management with battery storage

This paper considers short-term energy management of a wind power plant with battery storage, in order to smooth the variations of power output to the external grid. An optimal on-line heuristic is developed for a control environment, in which decision-making is independent of wind historical data and forecasts.

Taming Wind Energy with Battery Storage

Battery Storage for Supplementing Renewable Energy Systems

Battery energy storage can be integrated with renewable energy generation systems in either grid-connected or standalone applications. For stand-alone systems, batteries are essential to store electricity for use when the sun is not shining or when the wind is not blowing. For grid-connected systems, batteries add value to intermittent renewable resources by facilitating a better match between ...
