“…Microgrids can sell power for system black starts. Three auxiliary services include (i) frequency responsive spinning reserve (Usman et al 2014) and (ii) supplemental reserve (Fuchs and Masoum 2015). and (iii) backup supplies (Vinayagam et al 2016) are available for sale by microgrids in an open, competitive market.…”

The rapid growth of distributed energy generation has brought new challenges for the management and operation of power systems. Voltage fluctuation is one of the primary factors preventing further photovoltaic (PV) penetration in low-voltage networks. The proper sizing and location of any storage system are essential for reducing costs and eliminating losses, which is another element. This review presents an in-depth overview of the different ancillary services that storage systems may offer and a proper sizing of energy storage systems (ESS). Different kinds of ESSs store energy in different ways. Some of these have reached their full potential, while others are still being worked on. Specific storage solutions may be picked depending on how well the application needs to run. Pumped-hydro and thermal energy storage systems are best for large-scale energy storage, while battery energy storage systems are highly suggested for high power and energy needs. Most of the time, supercapacitors, superconducting magnetic energy storage (SMES), and flywheel energy storage (FES) are used for short-term and fast-response uses. Hydrogen and methane are not often used to store energy because they could be more efficient. A few case studies are also given.

The ever-growing participation of Renewable Energy Sources (RES) in modern distribution networks is replacing an important portion of Conventional Generation (CG), which brings along new challenges in the planning and operation of distribution grids. As RES such as Photovoltaic Energy (PV) and Wind Power Generation (WPG) increase in distribution networks, studies regarding their integration and coordination become more important. In this context, the purpose of this paper is to propose a Multi-period Optimal Power Flow (MOPF) model for the optimal coordination of Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESSs) with PV, WPG, and CG in modern distribution networks. The model formulation was developed in A Modeling Language for Mathematical Programming (AMPL) and solved through the Knitro solver within a time horizon of 24 h. A distinctive feature and one of the main contributions of the proposed approach is the fact that BESSs can provide both active and reactive power. The proposed optimization model reduces power losses and improves voltage profiles. To show the applicability and effectiveness of the proposed model, several tests were carried out on the 33-bus distribution test system and a real distribution system of 141 buses located in the metropolitan area of Caracas. Power loss reductions of up to 58.4% and 77% for the test systems of 33 and 141 buses were obtained, respectively, when BESSs provided both active and reactive power. The results allow us to conclude that the proposed model for optimal coordination of BESSs with RES is suitable for real-life applications, resulting in important reductions of power losses and flattening of voltage profiles.

“…In the realm of electrical power systems, a specific storage capacity is typically allocated to ensure system performance and availability in the event of unexpected production capacity disruptions [65]. This storage capacity is known as:  Spinning Storage: it refers to capacity that is directly connected and synchronized with the network, capable of swiftly responding to compensate for production or transmission interruptions.…”
