A Study on the Development of a Novel ESS Simulation Model for Transmission-Level Power-System Analysis

Abstract

Thanks to technological advances, the number of large-scale ESS applications is increasing in power systems. Therefore, the need for an ESS model to analyze the effect through simulation has also increased. In this study, an ESS analysis model was developed for transmission-level power-system analysis. The developed model has a relatively uncomplicated configuration compared to the previous model. The ESS model was developed in a form that can be exploited in the PSS®E, commercial power-system analysis program. The programming language FORTRAN was used for model development. A detailed process and necessary data for the model development are described. The operation of the developed ESS model was verified through simulation using two test systems. The results of this study can be used for power-system analysis and as reference material for model development.
