Battery energy storage systems

Abstract

This paper reviewed some of the technical aspect of the utilization of battery energy storage system to solve several power systems problems particularly when connected to renewable energy systems. This paper will propose a novel design of a three-phase battery energy storage system as an interface between the supply system and the load. The proposed three-phase multi-purpose Battery Energy Storage System will provide active and reactive power independent of the supply voltage with excellent power quality in terms of its waveform. The paper will discuss the hardware configuration and software technologies currently being used to implement the proposed design. The simulation results and the hardware experimental results of the three-phase battery energy storage system will be presented and discussed.
