The electrical power sector has entered an era of decarbonizing energy generation by accommodating more Renewable Energy Sources (RES), especially solar energy in the power grid. However, high penetration of such a resource has negative impacts on the power network such as power fluctuations, reverse power flows and voltage rises. Energy Storage (ES) offers an effective solution to addressing those...
This paper proposes a strategy for optimal allocation of multiple Community Energy Storage (CES) units in a distribution system with photovoltaic (PV) generation. The main contribution of this strategy is it considers all possible benefits accrued from and costs incurred by CES deployment to a utility. The benefits are gained from energy arbitrage, peaking power generation, energy loss reduction,...
Energy Storage (ES) has been seen as a crucial element in active distribution networks. It facilitates a high penetration level of intermittent renewable energy in power systems thus provide several technical and economic benefits to the utility and consumer. However, given a high capital cost associated with ES, it is crucial to develop an effective planning strategy to avail the maximum benefit...
Energy Storage (ES) has become an important element in Active Distribution Networks (ADNs) due to progressive integration of renewable energy such as photovoltaic (PV). ES enables high penetration of intermittent PV while bringing several additional benefits to the network. Such benefits include loss reduction, voltage profile improvement and reverse power flow avoidance. This paper presents an analysis...
This paper presented an approach to place single and multiple Energy Storage (ES) units in a distribution network with photovoltaic (PV) units considering energy losses. The approach is based on ALSFmax, which is defined as a difference between the minimum and maximum Loss Sensitivity Factor (LSF) values. The GridLAB-D simulation software is used to model test systems under the study and to validate...
Community Energy Storage (CES) has been known as a new generation of energy storage that is a crucial element in smart grid. Its location at the edge of the grid and close to customers offers great benefits compare to energy storage located at substation in terms of smoothening the impacts of intermittent Renewable Energy (RE) resources and diversity of Electric Vehicle (EV) operational characteristics...
