An Accurate Charging Model of Battery Energy Storage

Battery energy storage is becoming an important part of modern power systems. As such, its operation model needs to be integrated in the state-of-the-art market clearing, system operation, and investment models. However, models that commonly represent operation of a large-scale battery energy storage are inaccurate. A major issue is that they ignore the dependence of the charging power on the battery state of energy. Consequently, market players might suffer great monetary losses for not being able to follow their day-ahead schedule and/or deliver the scheduled reserves. In order to bridge the gap between very detailed low-level battery charging constraints and high- level battery operation models used in the literature, this paper examines a dependence of battery charging ability on its state of energy. It proposes a laboratory procedure, which can be used for any battery type and technology, to obtain this dependence. It also formulates an accurate linear battery charging model, which closely approximates the real-life battery charging constraints. The proposed battery charging model is compared against the models commonly used in the literature. Battery operation schedules obtained by all the models are compared against experimentally obtained results in order to assess the value of the proposed model in real life.
