As the generation of renewable energy increases rapidly, the stability of the grid due to its intermittency becomes a problem. The most appropriate way to solve this problem is to combine and operate the renewable generators with the ESS(Energy Storage System). However, since the revenues of operating the ESS are less than the investment cost, many countries are implementing various incentive policies for encouraging investment of the ESS. In this paper we estimated optimal capacity of the ESS to maximize profits of renewable energy generation businesses under the incentive policy of Korea and analyzed the impact of the incentive policy on the future electric power system of Jeju island. The simulation results show that the incentive policy has significantly improved the profitability of the renewable energy businesses generation business. But the volatility of the net demand has increased as the energy stored in the ESS is discharged intensively at the time of the incentive application.

As interest in the efficiency use of energy has been recently rising, studies have been performed in utilizing various types of eco-friendly green energy and natural energy. Especially there has been rapidly increase in the fields using ESS (Energy Storage System), which is the technology for storing the energy from nature. The application fields of ESS is continuously growing and expanding to various types of technologies. However, in recent years there have been continuing problems with the safety of ESS. And related researches are going on. In this paper, we has proposed a system structure to utilize more secure ESS and has monitored the system status of ESS in real time by using smart phone app. This paper has also proposed a new method to configure secure ESS by implementing GUI (Graphical User Interface) to control the system. And then explain experimental results to investigate the efficiency of the proposed ESS.

Owing to the reduction in the peak power of a DC railway subsystem, many studies on energy storage system (ESS) applications have received attention. Each application focuses on improving the efficiency and addressing regulation issues by utilizing the huge regenerative energy generated by braking-phase vehicles. The ESS applications are widely divided into installation on a vehicle or in a substation, depending on the target system characteristics. As the main purpose of the ESS application is to reduce the peak power of starting-phase vehicles, an optimized ESS utilization can be achieved by the operating at the highest peak power section. However, the weight of an entire vehicle, including those of the passengers, continuously changes during operation; thus, considering the total power consumption and the discharging point is difficult. As a contribution to the various storage device algorithms, this study deals with ESS on board vehicles and introduces an ESS operating plan for peak-power reduction by investigating the weight of a train on a real-time basis. This process is performed using a train-performance simulator, and the simulation accuracy can be increased because the weight in each phase can be adopted in the simulation.

This paper deals with a ride-through technique for permanent-magnet synchronous generator (PMSG) wind turbine systems using energy storage systems (ESS). A control strategy which consists of current and power control loops for the energy storage systems is proposed. By increasing the generator speed, some portion of the turbine power can be stored in the system inertia. Therefore, the required energy capacity of the ESS can be decreased, which results in a low-cost system. In addition, the power fluctuations due to wind speed variations can be smoothened by controlling the ESS appropriately. The effectiveness of the proposed method is verified not only by the simulation results for a 2[MW] PMSG wind turbine system, but also by the experiment results for a reduced-scale turbine simulator.

The paper proposed a sizing method of an energy storage system(ESS) for peak shaving of high-speed railway substations based on load profile patterns of substations. A lithium based battery ESS was selected since it can produce high-power at high speed that peak shaving requires, and also takes up a relatively smaller space for installation. Adequate size of the ESS, minimum capacity which can technically meet a peak shaving target, was determined by collectively considering load patterns of a target substation, characteristics of the ESS to be installed, and optimal scheduling of the ESS. In case study, a local substation was considered to demonstrate the proposed sizing method. Also economic analysis with the determined size of ESS was performed to calculate electricity cost savings of the peak shaving ESS, and to offer pay-back period and return on investment.

The energy use is increasing as the quality of human life improves. and research on the efficient use of energy in ESS (Energy Storage System) is ongoing. An air conditioner is required for the efficient use of an ESS, as are data on the distribution of the temperature of the latter based on the capacity of the air conditioner. In the absence of an air conditioner, the battery of the ESS reaches its maximum temperature of 40℃ after 2 h. When an air conditioner is present, the temperature of the battery stabilizes as the capacity of the former increases.

In this paper, the cooperative control scheme of micro sources and an ESS (Energy Storage System) during islanded operation is presented and evaluated by a simulation study. The ESS handles the frequency and voltage as a primary control. Then, the secondary regulation control returns the cur-rent power output of ESS into a pre-planned value. The simulation's results show that the proposed co-operative control scheme can regulate the frequency and voltage and reduce the consumption of the stored energy of ESS.

Micro Grid(MG)는 새로운 개념의 전력시스템으로 Smart Grid 기술의 일환으로 관심을 받고 있다. 기본적인 MG의 개념은 신/재생에너지를 포함한 분산전원의 도입 및 효율적인 계통운영이지만 여기에는 전력공급의 신뢰성과 경제성이 배제될 수 없는 요소임은 확실하다. MG라는 새로운 계통의 개념을 도입하는데 있어서 기존 전력계통(Utility Grid)과의 간섭, 신뢰도 및 전력품질의 문제들이 해결해야 하는 숙제로 떠오르고 있는데 이에 대한 대안 중 하나가 에너지저장기술이다. 그러나 본 기술은 아직까지는 초기투자비 및 운영유지비가 매우 높은 수준이기 때문에 MG의 설계에 있어서 신뢰도와 경제성을 함께 고려한 Energy Storage System(ESS)의 설치방법이 필요로 된다. 이에 본 논문에서는 공급신뢰도기준을 충족할 수 있는 ESS의 최소필요용량 및 적정투자시점을 결정하는 확률론적 방법을 제안하고 이에 대한 사례연구를 수행하였다.

In accordance with the policy of local government, the large scale of wind farms have been installed in Jeju power system. However, The intermittent characteristics of wind power output may cause grid voltage and frequency variation, especially in weak power system. One of the solution to solve this problem is installation of Energy storage system (ESS). In this case, the ESS will regulate the active power generated from wind farm to mitigate fluctuation. Actually, the local government of Jeju island constructed ESS connected to Hangwon wind turbine in 2016. From this point, this paper analyzes requirement capacity of ESS to mitigate wind power fluctuation based on measured data from Hangwon wind turbine and ESS. The simulation results will be carried out by Matlab program.
