The purpose of this study was to evaluate the thermal environment of present state and energy consumption and to verify the improvement of energy performance applying free cooling in 5ESS-2000 telecommunication equipment room. Analysis program is used the DOE-2.1E and commercial CFD code, Star-CD. The results of the simulation show that free cooling could reduce 42.1% of cooling energy, increase 48.5% of heating energy because introduced outdoor air must heating and humidification. Therefore free cooling could reduce yearly 34,609.9 kWh of heating and cooling energy and this is reaching to 21.6% of total energy.

This paper proposes the method for determination of the capacities of ESS (Energy Storage System) and PCS (Power Conditioning System) for the peak load shaving based on the load data in the substation of urban railway. In addition, this paper analyze the actual measurement of loads in the substation of urban railway. The load of a weekday in the substation of urban railway is high around rush hours in the morning and evening, which is different from that of a normal substation. The required capacities of ESS and PCS become larger as the amount of peak load shaving is higher, and are affected from the patterns of daily load in the substation.

In this paper, a power flow control of PV hybrid module system with ESS is proposed. Photovoltaic(PV) hybrid module system is consist of individual converter, central inverter, and energy storage system(ESS). Because PV power can be changed in particular hours and environment condition, the power management control for ESS is required. In this paper, the power flow control method for PV hybrid module system with ESS is proposed. The validity of proposed control method is verified by simulations and theoretical analysis.

This paper proposes the hybrid UPS(Uninterruptible Power Supply) with ESS(Energy Storage System) function. The proposed hybrid UPS is operating in four states, which are normal state, battery state, ESS state, and bypass state. In case of peak load time or power shortage, the system is operating in ESS state in which the stored energy of the battery is used to manage the power effectively. The validity of proposed system are verified by simulations and experiments.

Given the change in the energy market, large energy storage systems (ESS) is rapidly entering the market. In this rapid spread, fire accidents are becoming an issue. This study attempts to approach the fire from the system point of view to analyze the problems caused by bonding from different perspectives. Moreover, to conduct this study, the fabrication of real objects is dangerous, which needs to be verified through simulation. In this study, we approach the cause of fire that occurs in large-capacity ESS from the system perspective. We focus on determining the effects of cell balancing performed on the BMS after charging. Thus, we analyze the cell balancing behavior and the linkage risks to the various stacks. The study also explores why no fire occurs during 70% operation.

We analyzed the system efficiency of small solar power plants with 80% of total solar power plants. The data of the solar power plant with installed capacity of 100kW was collected and the correlation of the ESS efficiency according to the capacity of the PCS and the battery of each power plant was deduced. As a result, the higher the C-rate value affecting the discharge rate of the battery, The discharge efficiency of the plasma display panel is increased.

In recent years, ESS (Energy Storage System) has been widely used in various parts of a power system. Especially, due to its fast response time and high ramp rate, ESS is known to play an important role in regulating grid frequency and providing rotational inertia. As the number of installed and commercially operating ESSs increases, the reliability becomes an important issue. This paper introduces control schemes and presents its test method for grid-connected ESS for primary frequency regulation. The test method allows to verify the control operation in the individual operation mode and state. A validation of the method through actual ESS test in a electrical substation is presented in the case study section.

This paper proposes a hybrid ESS that integrates an energy storage system (ESS) with an uninterruptible power supply (UPS). The hybrid ESS has a demand management and emergency power supply function while increasing the battery utilization of the UPS, which has just been used in a power failure. In addition to the critical load, the proposed system augments the capacity of emergency generation using an additional load, which has voltage and frequency-dependent characteristics to the grid side. The control algorithm of the AC-DC converter and bidirectional DC-DC converter is proposed for demand management and emergency power supply. Furthermore, seamless and autonomous transfer methods to alleviate the transient during mode transfer are proposed. To validate the proposed control scheme, experimental results from a 5 kW prototype are provided.

This paper proposed a method of energy storage system (ESS) operation to increase acceptable production of renewable energy (RE). We analyzed the rebound effect that does not show a demand increase even if the capacity of the ESS is increased and considered the charging time by analyzing the time when the output limit is most generated. The rebound effect was mitigated by adjusting the discharging time of the ESS, and the effect of the increase of acceptable production of the renewable energy was analyzed by adjusting the charging time.
