Battery energy storage frequency modulation control method

In this article, I propose an adaptive comprehensive control method that leverages primary frequency modulation characteristics and SOC optimization to improve the output of the battery energy storage system. Battery energy storage systems (BESSs) are required to provide frequency support to the grid in some cases, which increases the charge-discharge cycles of battery and accelerates its aging, especially in primary frequency control (PFC). However, the conventional PFC of BESS mainly focuses on the. In particular, energy storage participating in grid frequency modulation requires frequent switching of its charge and discharge state, which is more likely to accelerate battery aging, shorten its life cycle, and increase the cost of single frequency modulation. The battery energy stor-age system (BESS), which can be precisely regulated, has high response speeds and provides bi-directional. This paper aims to meet the challenges of large-scale access to renewable energy and increasingly complex power grid structure, and deeply discusses the application value of energy storage configuration optimization scheme in power grid frequency modulation.
