As development of battery technologies, the installation of Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) increased. The BESS can be used for various purposes such like frequency response, load leveling, and fluctuation mitigation of renewable energy generators. In this paper, three state BESS model is proposed. the BESS model considering charge, discharge and keeping efficiency, and life cycle according to depth of discharge (DOD). Then, the benefit and cost of BESS installed at substation for load leveling are summarized. The economic evaluation of BESS is analyzed using net present values (NPV) analysis. In case study, the NPV analysis of NaS battery system is carried out using the proposed BESS model. Because the result of economic evaluation of BESS using nowadays cost data is not positive, the sensitivity analysis of BESS is conducted by changing the capital cost and energy cost.

The load factor is continuously decreasing with the increase of the daytime power demand so that the load levelling is required. Since the pumped storage power plant for the load levelling has some problems, new storage techniques such as the battery energy storage system (BESS) had been developed in the early 1980s. The MW BESS had been already interconnected to power system in the developed countries, while the 20KW BESS was developed and is being operated by KERI and KEPCO in our country, the development project of MW BESS is being persued now. Then, it is important to evaluate the economics and prospect of BESS. This paper presents the economic target and introduction prospect of BESS in korea.

As an Increased penetration level of renewable resources has caused concerns about primary frequency response, an increase in BESS(Battery Energy Storage System) capacity has been expected because of its fast response to the disturbances in the power system. This paper proposes the Integrated Control Strategy of multiple BESS for effectively providing the primary frequency control in the bulk power systems by coordinating the response, SOC and its recovery of BESS. The proposed strategy prevents multiple BESS from providing exceeding response and keeps the balance between SOC of multiple BESS. In addition, It would recover the SOC of BESS efficiently. The effectiveness of the proposed strategy is verified through various case studies employing Korean power system.

As the development of Battery Energy Storage System(BESS) and the increasing of intermittent energy sources like wind power and photovoltaic, the application of BESS in load frequency control is considered as an effective method. To evaluate the effectiveness of BESS application in frequency control, we defined a governor free model of BESS to conduct dynamic simulation. Using the BESS dynamic model, we implemented the power system dynamic model including steam, gas and hydro turbine generators. In this paper we study the control performance of BESS in primary frequency control. The effect of BESS speed regulation rate and response time on governor free operation is investigated. In addition, we compared BESS from steam turbine generator in view point of frequency regulation.

So far BESS(Battery Energy storage system) has been widely applied to power systems rapidly. Usually it has been used to regulate the renewable energy output and to adjust the power system frequency. In 2013, EPRI has reported a study of utilizing BESS to replace two black start generators of American Electric Power(AEP) that will be demolished. If the BESS can be used as a self-starting generator, it is possible to shorten the long-distance primary transmission line and shorten the restoration time because BESS is capable of the high-speed start and there is no restriction on the installation position. This paper presents a possibility of using BESS as a self-starting generator by using PSCAD/EMTDC in Korean power systems. Herein, the process to estimated the required capacity of BESS is also presented.

Since South Korea started to apply Renewable Portfolio Standard (RPS) in 2012, there have been huge investment for deploying renewable technologies. Recently, the government determined to incentivize battery energy storage system(BESS) with renewable generations in order to induce the improvement of dispatching capability. In this paper, the annual pattern of PV generation based on actual generation data in South Korea is analyzed and the duration curve of capacity factor is proposed in order to provide the simplified analyzing methodology of present support policy for additional BESS installation for decision maker who is responsible for supply and demand planning. With suggested methodology, the range of appropriate BESS size with respect to the variation of system marginal price(SMP) and renewable energy certificate(REC) price can be derived briefly, and decision makers easily evaluate the effect of support scheme. Current policy for BESS installation support present additional BESS-related installation policy may give incentives to developers partially, however, the dependence between BESS size and benefit components (SMP and REC) can limit the deployment of the various portfolios of the BESS. Therefore, when improving the current policy in future, addressing the dependence between the technical aspects of battery size and the benefit components separately by the technical and economical parts is needed to set the suitable compensation rules for the renewable generation and BESS.

A microgrid as a small scale power system is operated by the grid-connected mode and islanded mode. It is anticipated that the battery energy storage system (BESS) is able to be applied to the microgrid for stable power control, such as tie-line and smoothing control in the grid-connected mode and voltage and frequency control in the islanded mode. In this paper, a digital signal processor (DSP), Two BESS controllers based on TMS320F28335 of a microgrid are implemented and are tested to show control performance in the hardware-in-the loop simulation (HILS) system.
