Battery Energy Storage Systems in Ships’ Hybrid/Electric Propulsion Systems

Battery Storage for Supplementing Renewable Energy Systems

Battery energy storage can be integrated with renewable energy generation systems in either grid-connected or standalone applications. For stand-alone systems, batteries are essential to store electricity for use when the sun is not shining or when the wind is not blowing. For grid-connected systems, batteries add value to intermittent renewable resources by facilitating a better match between ...

Model Predictive Control for Distributed Microgrid Battery Energy Storage Systems

This paper proposes a new convex model predictive control strategy for dynamic optimal power flow between battery energy storage systems distributed in an AC microgrid. The proposed control strategy uses a new problem formulation, based on a linear d–q reference frame voltage-current model and linearised power flow approximations. This allows the optimal power flows to be solved as a convex opt...

Power Systems Laboratory Degradation-limiting Optimization of Battery Energy Storage Systems Operation

In this thesis, a semi-empirical lithium-ion battery capacity degradation model is developed. The basic form of the model is developed from previous theoretical studies, then experimental data of Lithium Manganese Oxide (LMO) batteries are used to calibrate the model and to calculate coefficients. Based on the developed degradation model, Li-Ion Battery Energy Storage System’s (BESS) value in p...
