A Development of 2MVA Battery Energy Storage System

Energy storage system connected to the grid has two functions such as the surplus power of a grid is stored in batteries or the energy stored in batteries will supply to the grid when the grid needs. The battery energy storage system consist of power condition system (PCS) for power supply and battery conditioning system (BCS). Lithium-ion batteries are mainly used. In this paper, the battery energy storage system connected to the grid described. The configuration of the 2MVA class power control system using water cooling and battery system are presented. And control method for the system and the output filter design method are proposed. Experimental verification of the proposed system is provided with 2MVA PCS and 500kWh BCS.

The Application and Verification of the 2MVA Battery Energy Storage System(BESS) with Wind-turbine in Micro-grid of Gapado, Jeju

This paper shows the test result of 2MVA BESS(Battery Energy Storage System) with wind-turbine in micro-grid of the Gapado. To implement of micro-grid with BESS, characteristics of generator and customer load in grid are considered. Also, to operate of 2-parallel PCU(Power Conversion Unit) in BESS, the droop control is adopted with operating mode of grid independent. Performances of BESS with wind-turbine were verified by analysis of power quality such as voltage harmonics, ratio of voltage and frequency regulation, and by measurement of waveform such as output voltage and current.

Development of Battery Simulator for Performance Verification of MW-class PCS

An energy storage system (ESS) is applied to increase the energy efficiency of large plants or buildings that consume much energy, to improve the power quality of power systems, and to stabilize renewable energy source such as photovoltaic or wind turbine. The ESS is composed of a power conditioning system (PCS) and an energy storage. The battery is used as the energy storage. The battery is needed to design and verify a hardware and control system of PCS. Usually, a battery simulator is used instead of a battery, which is costly and hard to manage. In this paper, the development of the battery simulator for performance verification of the MW-class PCS is described. The battery simulator simulates the charging and discharging characteristics of batteries to design and verify the hardware and control system of PCS.

Magnetic Switch Auto Control Method of the High-Voltage Pulse Power Supply

The magnetic switch used in pulsed-power applications is superior in its high repetition rate, high stability, and long lifetime. But magnetic switch was optimized switching operation by manual control. When the load changes, the switching state can not be optimized automatically. In this paper, the auto control method of magnetic switch for high pulsed-power proposed. The magnetic switch is used capacitor charging power supply for high-voltage compressor. The proposed method can be optimized an efficiency of the system by magnetic switch auto control according to load variation. And the proposed method verify the experimental results.
