Abstract

Power system stability has been suffering increasing threats with the ever-growing penetration of intermittent renewable generation such as wind power and solar power. Battery energy storage systems (BESSs) could mitigate frequency fluctuation of the power system because of their accurate regulation capability and rapid response. By dividing the Area Control Error (ACE) signal and the State of Charge (SOC) of battery energy storage systems into different intervals, the frequency control task of BESSs could be determined by considering the frequency control demand of the power grid in each interval and SOC self-recovery. The well-developed model predictive control can be employed to attain the optimal control variable sequence of BESSs in the following time, which can determine the output depths of BESSs and action timing at different intervals. The simulation platform MATLAB/Simulink is used to build two secondary frequency control scenarios of BESSs for providing frequency regulation service. The feasibility of the presented strategy is demonstrated by simulation results of a sample system.
