Abstract The feasibility of integration of Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) with a three-phase AC grid is being investigated in this paper. A converter is an inevitable part of a modern DC generating system. The link between the grid and the BESS is established through a Voltage Source Converter (VSC). Therefore, the converter can be utilized to dispatch the DC generated power to the connected AC grid and at the same time provides reactive power compensation and load harmonic compensation throughout the day. The DC bus voltage control of the converter system is carried out to keep the power factor always at unity, irrespective of the charging state of the battery source. The charging and discharging of the connected battery energy storage system are carried out through a bidirectional DC-DC converter. Adaptive hysteresis band current control (AHCC) scheme is employed to produce the switching signals. Finally, its performance is compared with the traditional hysteresis band control technique.

In this paper, enhanced field oriented control technique (EFOC) was adopted in Rotor Side Control (RSC) of DFIG converter for improved response during severe faults. The work is intended to damp pulsations in electromagnetic torque, improve voltage mitigation and limit surge currents and to enhance the operation of DFIG during voltage sags. The converter topology uses a battery energy storage system with capacitor storage system to further enhance operation of DFIG during faults. The battery and capacitor system in coordination provide additional real and reactive power support during faults and nearly constant voltage profile at stator and rotor terminals and limit overcurrents. For EFOC technique, rotor flux reference changes its value from synchronous speed to zero during fault for injecting current at the rotor slip frequency. In this process DC-Offset component of flux is controlled, decomposition during overvoltage faults. The offset decomposition of flux will be oscillatory in a conventional FOC, whereas in EFOC it will damp quickly. A comparison is made with proposed methodology with battery energy storage system and a conventional system. Later the system performance with under voltage of 50% the rated voltage with fault at PCC during 0.8 to 1.2 seconds is analysed using simulation studies.

In microgrid operation, one of the most vital tasks of the system control is to wiselydecide between selling excess power to the local grid or charge the Battery Energy Storage System (BESS). Our study uses Mixed-Integer Linear Programming to investigate the impact of storage system on the operational cost of a microgrid. The results suggested that the presence of BESS would relieve the pressure on the utility grid but not the cost of electricity due to the expensive nature of the storage plant. In view of this, it will be more beneficial to sell excess renewable generated power to the utility grid than to invest in a storage system for larger microgrids.
