چکیده
This paper presents a grid-tied microgrid testbed for development and verification of automated energy storage management systems. Different assets in the microgrid including renewable generation, programmable load and a battery unit are introduced. Structure of the communication network to monitor and control the assets is also described in details. Based on the microgrid configuration, a centralized real-time management system for energy storage operation is designed and tested. Case studies show the effectiveness of the management system in response to dynamic changes in the microgrid while realizing long-term cost savings for the users.
