Optimal Allocation Of Energy Storage And Wind Generation In Power Distribution Systems, Carlos Mendoza
Optimal Allocation Of Energy Storage And Wind Generation In Power Distribution Systems, Carlos Mendoza
Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering: Dissertations, Theses, and Student Research
The advent of energy storage technologies applications for the electric power system gives new tools for planners to cope with the operation challenges that come from the integration of renewable generation in medium voltage networks. This work proposes and implements an optimization model for Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) and distributed generation allocation in radial distribution networks. The formulation aims to assist distribution system operators in the task of making decisions on energy storage investment, BESSs' operation, and distributed generation penetration's level to minimize electricity costs. The BESSs are required to participate in energy arbitrage and voltage control. In addition, …
