Energy storage is a valuable tool for balancing the grid and integrating more renewable energy. When energy demand is low and production of renewables is high, the excess energy can be stored for later use. When demand for energy or power is high and supply is low, the stored energy can be discharged. Due to the hourly, seasonal, and locational ...
This article proposes a novel energy control strategy for distributed energy storage system (DESS) to solve the problems of slow state of charge (SOC) equalization and slow current sharing. In this strategy, a key part of the presented strategy is the integration of a new parameter virtual current defined from SOC and output current.
