| Abstract |
So far BESS(Battery Energy storage system) has been widely applied to power systems rapidly. Usually it has been used to regulate the renewable energy output and to adjust the power system frequency. In 2013, EPRI has reported a study of utilizing BESS to replace two black start generators of American Electric Power(AEP) that will be demolished. If the BESS can be used as a self-starting generator, it is possible to shorten the long-distance primary transmission line and shorten the restoration time because BESS is capable of the high-speed start and there is no restriction on the installation position. This paper presents a possibility of using BESS as a self-starting generator by using PSCAD/EMTDC in Korean power systems. Herein, the process to estimated the required capacity of BESS is also presented. |
