The series and parallel energy storage system based on super capacitors can quickly adjust a wide range of active and reactive power in two directions, which is a new way to improve the stability and power quality of new energy power generation system. In this paper, double converters structure is used to achieve the series and parallel compensation effect and their control strategies according to Instantaneous Power Theory. It is simulated in PSCAD that series and parallel energy storage system of super capacitor contribute to the impact on wind turbines power as environment conditions change. Simulation results show that the energy storage system can greatly improve the stability and power quality of grid-connected wind turbines.

Battery energy storage systems (BESSs) are being deployed on electrical grids in significant numbers to provide fast-response services. These systems are normally procured by the end user, such as a utility grid owner or independent power producer. This paper introduces a novel research project in which a research institution has purchased a 1 MW BESS and turned ownership over to a utility company under an agreement that allowed the institution to perform experimentation and data collection on the grid for a multi-year period. This arrangement, along with protocols governing experimentation, has created a unique research opportunity to actively and systematically test the impact of a BESS on a live island grid. The 2012 installation and commissioning of the BESS was facilitated by a partnership between the Hawaii Natural Energy Institute (HNEI) and the utility owner, the Hawaiian Electric and Light Company (HELCO). After the test period ended, HELCO continued to allow data collection (including health testing). In 2018, after 8500 equivalent cycles, the BESS continues to operate within specifications. HNEI continues to provide HELCO with expertise to aid with diagnostics as needed. Details about the BESS design, installation, experimental protocols, initial results, and lessons learned are presented in this paper.

With the significant increase in the insertion of wind turbines in the electrical system, the overall inertia of the system is reduced resulting in a loss of its ability to support frequency. This is because it is common to use variable speed wind turbines, based on the Double Fed Induction Generator (DFIG), which are coupled to the power grid through electronic converters, which do not have the same characteristics as synchronous generators. Thus, this paper proposes the use of the DFIG-associated Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) to support the primary frequency. A control strategy was developed, and important factors such as charging and discharging current limitations and operation within battery limits were considered. Time domain simulations have been proposed to study a distribution system containing a wind turbine, showing the advantages of BESS over frequency disturbances.

In order to solve the problems which are caused by wind power and solar power on-grid, such as power quality, stability, reliability and so on, this paper proposes wind and solar micro-grid including energy storage system(ESS). The micro-grid uses two buses: AC bus and DC bus. Micro-source current is connected to the grid with the same inverter, which can reduce the micro-grid control difficulties. The energy storage system connected to the grid through the inverter could directly absorb energy from the grid. The DC side of the energy storage system using bidirectional DC / DC converter, which can keep the DC side of the battery storage stable.

A key challenge for future energy systems is how to minimize the effects of employing demand response (DR) programs on the consumer. There exists a diverse range of consumers with a variety of types of loads, such as must-run loads, and this can reduce the impact of consumer participation in DR programs. Multi-energy systems (MES) can solve this issue and have the capability to reduce any discomfort faced by all types of consumers who are willing to participate in the DRPs. In this paper, the most recent implementations of DR frameworks in the MESs are comprehensively reviewed. The DR modelling approach in such energy systems is investigated and the main contributions of each of these works are included. Notably, the amount of research in MES has rapidly increased in recent years. The majority of the reviewed works consider power, heat and gas systems within the MES. Over three-quarters of the papers investigated consider some form of energy storage system, which shows how important having efficient, cost-effective and reliable energy storage systems will be in the future. In addition, a vast majority of the works also considered some form of demand response programs in their model. This points to the need to make participating in the energy market easier for consumers, as well as the importance of good communication between generators, system operators, and consumers. Moreover, the emerging topics within the area of MES are investigated using a bibliometric analysis to provide insight to other researchers in this area.
