Energy storage systems are becoming more and more important for integrating higher levels of varying and intermittent renewable power into the grid. As we have energy storages with different characteristics and applications, hybrid storage solutions combining various technologies to meet different applications are fast developing. In this paper, an efficient energy management strategy is proposed for a VRB and Li-ion hybrid battery system to be integrated with a grid-connected wind-PV Hybrid Renewable Energy System (HRES). The operation of the generating system and the storage batteries are evaluated using Matlab/Simulink and techno-economic analysis is carried out. The results demonstrated successful implementation of the hybrid system with improved deliver ability and storage lifetime. © 2019 Elsevier Ltd

Integration and energy management of a hybrid Li-VRB battery for renewable applications

This paper proposes an intelligent battery management system (BMS) implementing two large Vanadium Redox Battery (VRB) flow batteries in a master-slave mode to provide grid-level energy storage for a wind-solar hybrid power system. The proposed BMS is formulated to effectively meet a predetermined power dispatch formulated based on forecasted wind and solar data while incorporating features like peak shaving and ramp rate limiting. It is compared to a single battery module operated system to showcase the advantages of the proposed intelligent dual battery module in terms of appreciable reduction in battery size and costs while exhibiting improved lifecycle performance. The battery size is optimized based on heuristic optimization algorithms and modelled in Matlab/Simulink environment. An intelligent fuzzy-based BMS is used to control the dual VRB model to ensure optimized power sharing between batteries. The simulations were carried out and an in-depth economic analysis conducted to analyze the costs and other financial metrics of the hybrid project. Results proved the advantages of the dual battery with the proposed BMS and fortify that the introduction of time-based tariffs and other incentives will further make investments in VRB highly attractive for renewable applications.

Intelligence-Based Battery Management and Economic Analysis of an Optimized Dual-Vanadium Redox Battery (VRB) for a Wind-PV Hybrid System

With growing penetration of renewable sources in the power scenario there is also a bilateral increase for the need of storage systems. Unpredictability and high intermittence in the power generated from renewable systems like wind have driven the need for adequate back up energy reserves and power quality improvement according to grid standards. Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) have been the most popular and mature technology for grid applications from a long time. Lot of research is pursued in BESS to develop its volumetric capacity, specific discharge rates and efficiency by improving the material properties, integration topologies and control mechanisms. Still there is huge scope for improving these systems to deliver maximum penetration results. This paper explores the various BESS available, their developments, properties as well as the applications in Wind Power grids. Also, a brief overview of the future scope of development in BESS is outlined. © 2014 IEEE.
