Abstract

This paper presents a comparative evaluation of central and self-dispatch management concepts for battery energy storage (BES) facilities in island power systems with a high renewable energy source (RES) penetration. BES facilities deployed to support the integration of additional wind capacity can be either centrally dispatched by the island System Operator or they can be self-dispatched within a Virtual Power Plant entity comprising renewables and storage, called a Hybrid Power Station (HPS). To explore the anticipated benefits of each BES management paradigm, annual simulations are performed for an example island system, employing a three-layer mixed integer linear programming (MILP) method to simulate the unit commitment and economic dispatch processes. The levelized cost of energy (LCOE) of combined BES and renewables investments is calculated and the achieved RES penetration levels and island system generation cost are evaluated, allowing the identification of Pareto optimal storage configurations, leading to lowest LCOE for a given RES penetration target. Overall, the centrally dispatched BES systems prove to be substantially more cost-effective, compared to the self-dispatched alternative, for achieving similar RES penetration levels.
