The equivalent circuit model for utility-scale battery energy storage systems (BESS) is beneficial for multiple applications including performance evaluation, safety assessments, and the development of accurate models for simulation studies. This paper evaluates and compares the performance of utility-scale equivalent circuit models developed at multiple sub-component levels, i.e. at the rack, module, and cell levels. This type of modeling is used to demonstrate that the equivalent circuit model for a reference cell, module, or rack of a BESS can be scaled to represent the entire battery system provided that the battery management system (BMS) is active and functional. Contrary to …


Cost Minimization Of Battery-Supercapacitor Hybrid Energy Storage For Hourly Dispatching Wind-Solar Hybrid Power System, Pranoy Roy, Jiangbiao He, Yuan Liao Nov 2020

Cost Minimization Of Battery-Supercapacitor Hybrid Energy Storage For Hourly Dispatching Wind-Solar Hybrid Power System, Pranoy Roy, Jiangbiao He, Yuan Liao

Electrical and Computer Engineering Faculty Publications

This study demonstrates a dispatching scheme of wind-solar hybrid power system (WSHPS) for a one-hour dispatching period for an entire day utilizing battery and supercapacitor hybrid energy storage subsystem (HESS). A frequency management approach is deployed to extend the longevity of the batteries through extensively utilizing the high energy density property of batteries and the high power density property of supercapacitors in the HESS framework. A low-pass filter (LPF) is employed to decouple the power between a battery and a supercapacitor (SC). The cost optimization of the HESS is computed based on the time constant of the LPF through extensive …
