Optimal sizing of Battery Energy Storage Systems in microgrids

State Government-owned corporation that builds, maintains and operates electricity network throughout majority of south Western Australia

Governed by an independent Board and reports to Minister for Energy, as owner’s representative

Serving more than one million customers across a network area of 254,920 km2

Customer-orientated organisation that provides a safe, reliable and affordable electricity supply to Western Australians

Provides an essential service through transmission and distribution of electricity across our vast infrastructure of poles, wires, substations and depots

Conclusion - BESS sizing problem

The size of BESS can be decided by the technical operation requirements

Intelligent operation of BESS can reduce the operation cost of microgrids

The optimal sizing can be decided based on the network planning studies and economic analysis

The location of microgrids can significantly affect sizing
