Subgroup Activities and Breakout Session

Topics


Smart Inverter Functions

Lead: Ben Ealey, EPRI

Issue: Smart inverter functions primarily refined for solar use

cases; energy storage gaps exist

Goal: Update public reference for “Common Functions for

Smart Inverters” (EPRI Product 3002002233)

Key Questions/Decision for Breakout Session: Work

towards a consistent and robust list of measurement points

relating to both operating energy storage systems and

effectively realizing different applications of energy storage

systems.


Storage Value Estimation Tool (StorageVET)

Lead: Giovanni Damato, EPRI

Issue: No common, public tool to communicate value of

storage in diverse scenarios on consistent basis

Goal: Build publicly available web-hosted simulation model

which is customizable, transparent, and validated

Key Questions/Decision for Breakout Session: Feedback

from users to help refine the development of model.


Test Manual

Leads: Mike Manahan, LG&E and KU

Issue: Need clear targets for performance and compliance

Goal: Build a complete test manual table of contents

Key Questions/Decision for Breakout Session:– Identify missing sections

– Feedback on current sections

– Identify existing products and work in progress for manual content

– Determine if ESIC should fill gaps manual


Testing: Drafting Common Test Procedures

Lead: J Henderson, PG&E

Issue: Need test procedures which provide critical

performance / compliance info, consistently

Goal: Build a complete test manual table of content

Key Questions/Decision for Breakout Session: – Final review and comments

– Get ready for publications

– Question for technologies developers – do the tests work on your

systems (identify test exceptions)


Commissioning Guidelines

Lead: Mark Siira, ComRent

Issue: Commissioning for storage isn’t standardized; potential for gaps and misunderstanding

Goal:– To serve as a high-level non-project-specific practical guide for

system commissioning stage of project execution– To support the development of a practical, deployment-oriented,

industry practices, where gaps exist today

Key Questions/Decisions for Breakout Session:– Identify gaps in draft guidelines and determine if gaps should be

addressed in current version or future revision– Develop recommendations for IEEE 1547– Coordinate efforts with Testing Group


Integration Guidelines and Gap Identification

Lead: Erin Minear, EPRI

Issue: Integrating storage is still relatively new and there are

limited tools and guidelines for navigating thru the

complexities of an energy storage project

Goal: Provide guidance and links to tools for all phases of

energy storage project life-cycle

Key Questions/Decisions for Breakout Session:

– Review/revise list of tasks within project phases

– Gap identification for develop of future guidelines and tools

Cost Study

What: Collect and report information on total cost of

ownership for energy storage systems for various

technologies and applications

Why: Inform utility integrated resource planners about using

energy storage as an asset in their generation mix

How: Send out a survey to technology suppliers, developers,

integrators, EPCs, utilities for input

Challenges:– Misrepresentation/misinterpretation of the data

– Proprietary data

– Cost doesn’t show the entire picture

– No Motivation


Overcoming the Challenges to Provide Useful Information

Challenge Solution

Misrepresentation/Misinterpretation of data • Provide an example of the proposed end

product

• Use the ESIC Cost Tool to clearly define

scope of study

Proprietary Data • Partial data submissions will be accepted

• No individual data will be displayed

• Aggregated results will be resent out for

review

Cost doesn’t show the entire picture • Planning to provide two use cases with cost-

benefit analysis and explanation of how to

asses the value

No Motivation • Opportunity to provide input before it is

included in a report

• Getting the right information in the decision

makers hands

• Put Energy Storage in the conversation mix!
