Various communication methods are utilized to facilitate seamless data exchange between different system components, including low-speed serial interfaces like RS485, CAN bus interfaces, and Ethernet communication interfaces.
Efficient internal communication within energy storage systems (ESS) is critical for ensuring stable operation, optimal performance, and safety management.
To bring more operational flexibility to transmission lines and comply with the electrical sector's digitalization trends, we propose implementing battery energy storage systems at transmission lines with the system's communication protocols and data modelling based on the IEC 61850 standard.
Why is energy storage important?
This feature facilitates communication between devices, which is crucial considering the ongoing digitalization trend of power systems. The intermittency generation profile of solar and wind energy brings new operational challenges, and energy storage allows flexibility in its use.
Can Bess systems be used for energy storage?
The use of BESS systems associated with power systems for energy storage and their use for operational or commercial purposes is an alternative increasingly explored in the literature due to the continuous improvement in the efficiency and costs of battery systems.
