“…Because of limiting capacity of fast ramping generation technologies such as hydro and pumped storage power plants, significant integration of wind power to existing power infrastructure requires major system upgrades or implementing energy storage facilities [2]. Besides, using energy storage facilities will result in more utilization of existing assets and thus attains more interest in recent studies [3] and become an attractive candidate for capturing wind power variability. Many studies assess the economic impact of storage devices in short term power system operation [2], [4], while deciding on energy storage deployment requires long term assessments especially when it is considered as an option for deferral of system reinforcement projects.…”

“…while as mentioned above, in the second category, i.e. long term studies, some works did not address transmission constraints (such as [7]), some did not address uncertainties (such as [3]) or both (such as [7]). Also, different storage technologies are addressed in these works while their model might be extended for other technologies.…”

Abstract-Rapid expansion and integration of wind energy is restrained due to transmission capacity constraints and conventional generation technologies limited operational flexibility in todays power systems. Energy storage is an attractive option to integrate and utilize more renewable energy without major and timely upgrade of existing transmission infrastructure. Also it can be considered as a mean for differing the reinforcement plans. The evaluation of energy storage deployment projects is a challenging task due to severe uncertainty of wind power generation. In this paper a robust techno-economic framework is proposed for energy storage evaluation based on Information Gap Decision Theory for handling wind generation uncertainty. The total social cost of the system including conventional generators' fuel and pollution cost and wind power curtailment cost is optimized considering generators operational constraints and transmission system capacity limitations based on the DC model of the power grid. The effect of storage devices on system performance is evaluated taking into account wind power uncertainty. The proposed method is conducted on the modified IEEE Reliability Test System (IEEE-RTS) and the modified IEEE 118 bus test system to assess its applicability and performance in midterm robust evaluation of energy storage implementation plans.Index Terms-DC optimal power flow, Storage devices, Transmission capacity constraints, Wind power generation, Information Gap Decision Theory.

INTRODUCTION A. Background and motivationsMany countries have long term plans to increase the share of renewable energy resources in their generation mix. Among these renewable resources there has been increasing interest to invest and integrate more wind power in to existing power systems. However, increasing the wind penetration introduces profound challenges to traditional operating and planning practices. These new challenges arise mainly because of the variable nature of wind energy which results in none optimal operation of electric power systems. Traditionally it is accepted that electricity supply and consumption must remain in instantaneous balance the opportunity to store electrical energy in storage devices may now change this paradigm. Wind power intermittency and variability requires other fast ramping power sources to balance the supply-demand equilibrium in power systems [1]. Because of limiting capacity of fast ramping generation technologies such as hydro and pumped storage power plants, significant integration of wind power to existing power infrastructure requires major system upgrades or implementing energy storage facilities [2]. Besides, using energy storage facilities will result in more utilization of existing assets and ...

“…It is assumed that the energy stored and spare energy capacity available in each storage unit is large enough to cope with the contingencies. The best location for siting a battery to remove post-contingency short-term overloads is determined through the sensitivity analysis method given in [21].…”

This paper presents a novel corrective control strategy that can effectively coordinate distributed and bulk energy storage to relieve post-contingency overloads. Immediately following a contingency, distributed batteries are implemented to provide fast corrective actions to reduce power flows below their short-term emergency ratings. During the long-term period, Pumped Hydro Storage units work in pumping or generation mode to aid conventional generating units keep line flows below the normal ratings. This problem is formulated as a multi-stage Corrective Security-constrained OPF (CSCOPF). An algorithm based on Benders decomposition was proposed to find the optimal base case solution and seek feasible corrective actions to handle all contingencies. Case studies based on a modified RTS-96 system demonstrate the performance and effectiveness of the proposed control strategy.

“…Applications of the ESSs in various subsystems of the power systems are considered and reviewed well in the literature [5,6]. ESSs have been widely applied in generation [7][8][9][10], transmission [11,12], and distribution sectors [13] of the electric power systems. Distribution network as one the structural units of the electric power system also benefits from some achievable applications of the ESSs in this network [13,14].…”

Abstract. system is proposed based on NaS battery and lithium ion battery, that the former is the main large scale energy storage technology world-widely used and developed and the latter is a flexible way to have both power and energy capacities. The hybrid energy storage system, which takes advantage of the two complementary technologies to provide large power and energy capacities, is chosen to do an evaluation of economical-environmental based on critical excess electricity production (CEEP), CO2 emission, annual total costs calculated on the specific given condition using Energy PLAN software. The result shows that hybrid storage system has strengths in environmental benefits and also can absorb more discarded wind power than single storage system and is a potential way to push forward the application of wind power and even other types of renewable energy resources.
