Communication Interfaces for Mobile Battery Energy Storage
The project aims to perform a thorough analysis of the various communication interfaces applicable to the applications that a mobile BESS can help support, of which, some typical
BESS grid services, also known as use cases or applications, involve using batteries in power systems for various purposes, such as frequency regulation, voltage support, black start, renewable energy smoothing, etc. .
BESS are large, stationary batteries used to store energy from the grid, often from renewable energy sources. They provide power to the grid during power outages or fluctuations and during peak demand periods. They are also used to provide power when renewable energy sources cannot — at night or when winds are low.
Similarly, E S is the maximum energy storage capacity in the specification of BESS. C-rate is used as the parameter to describe the charging and discharge speed, which is calculated as (3) C rate = I A Q S A h ≈ * E rate = P W E S W h = I A * U (V) ∫ 0 S (Q i A h * U i (V)) where the I and P are the current and power, respectively.
Utilities will continue to add BESS to the grid to supplement renewable energy sources and to provide backup power for emergency situations. As more systems are installed, more standards and best practices will emerge to help streamline the process.
