Description

Description

This course examines the rationale used for sizing battery storage systems (BESS) for grid ancillary services in order to solve power quality problems. It gives an overview of the motivation, methods, and best practices for the early steps followed to determine the suitability of a BESS for a given ancillary service. As such, it provides one of the many tools that are used to evaluate and optimise the use and location of BESS.

This course focuses on:

  • Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) sizing for ancillary services
  • BESS economics in ancillary services
  • BESS performance

Receive a reminder one week before the registration deadline.

Learning Objectives

Learning objectives

After completing this course, you should be able to:

  • explain why Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) providing ancillary services can reduce the need for the thermal must-run power station fraction;
  • identify the relevant factors used to size a BESS for ancillary services;
  • apply basic methodology for an optimal sizing of BESS; and
  • extract relevant information from the sizing to evaluate a BESS business case.

Target Groups

Target groups

This course is suitable for those whom:

  • have an advanced knowledge of electrical engineering;
  • are involved in the planning of battery systems; or
  • are interested in the rationale used when sizing BESS in ancillary services to solve power quality problems.
