Distributed generation (DG) are critical components for active distribution system (ADS). However, this may be a serious impact on power system due to their volatility. To this problem, interactive load and battery storage may be a best solution. This paper firstly investigates operation characteristics of interactive load and battery storage, including operation flexibility, inter-temporal ope...

Electric Vehicle (EV) possesses a significant potential to provide clean energy in vehicular technology. To increase the drive cycle efficiency and the driving range of EVs, which is considered to be the key barrier for its successful commercialization, its energy storage technology needs to be improved. The power requirement of an electric vehicle cannot be satisfied by the battery alone as it...

Abstract: In power system control unicontrol with single storage units or centralized control with multiple storage units to meet different level targets is challenging. Considering the charge and discharge characteristics of storage devices, this paper proposes a hierarchical configuration structure of a battery and supercapacitor mixed storage scenario, and develops a convenient control metho...
