Battery energy storage systems (BESS) stabilize the electrical grid, ensuring a steady flow of power to homes and businesses regardless of fluctuations from varied energy sources or other disruptions. However, fires at some BESS installations have caused concern in communities considering BESS as a method to support their grids.
In more detail, let's look at the critical components of a battery energy storage system (BESS). The battery is a crucial component within the BESS; it stores the energy ready to be dispatched when needed. A battery contains lithium cells arranged in series and parallel to form modules, which stack into racks.
The PCS uses battery status, like SoC and DoD, to manage charge and discharge according to the BESS strategy. The PCS can provide a fast and accurate power response by communicating with the battery. It can be driven by a pre-set strategy, external signals (on-site meters, etc..), or an Energy Management System (EMS).
