Bess sizing calculator Paraguay

What is Bess sizing configuration?

BESS sizing configuration. This tool is an algorithm for determining an optimum size of Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) via the principles of exhaustive search for the purpose of local-level load shifting including peak shaving (PS) and load leveling (LL) operations in the electric power system.

Is Bess size optimization correct?

A number of time-domain simulations were performed to validate the correctness of the BESS size optimization. It is demonstrated that the proposed optimization algorithm produces results that meet the requirements in the peak shaving and load leveling operations.

How to optimize Bess capacity & power?

An exhaustive search method is employed to perform the BESS capacity (QESS) and power (PESS) optimization. The sizing process involves two distinct steps.

What is a Bess model?

The model consists of variable load, a simple state-space BESS model and a rule-based controller which operates the BESS using a set of rules. A number of time-domain simulations were performed to validate the correctness of the BESS size optimization.

Should a Bess be split into two or more distinct units?

It may be decided to split the BESS into two or more distinct units for connection at multiple points in the network. This can be done to allow multiple sections to function independently with BESS support, as well as provide redundancy in system design. The type of connection should be decided early.

What's new in Bess v1 & v2?

v1.1 Added "FB" that represents fixed component of the BESS prices which is not affected by the annual declining rate in BESS prices (01/2021). v1.2 An option to discharge the battery starting from the end of low tariff period (02/2021). Copyright @ 2021
