Project for Engineering Graphics & Design - Case Study Example

The study involved a case where energy storage system can detect the frequency of the power output, and controls this frequency automatically to arrive at the required frequency of the power output. The study assumes an introduction of wind power generation at 1/10 of the power system capacity, and investigates the use of energy storage using a dead band control, contrary to using a high-pass filter type of control. The proposed approach seeks to regulate frequency deviations resulting from power output fluctuations, as well as the respective fluctuations related to the system load.

The study aims at understanding the results of a simulation concerning performance control and charge and discharge power on frequency deviations. Moreover, the study evaluates the total energy storage capacity of the battery that is fit to hold a specific range of fluctuations. The study assumed application of a battery system to store energy with a dead band to counteract the effects of frequency fluctuations
