Problems solved by technology

[0004] For improved power quality, energy stores should act quickly but they always have limitations due to ratings and energy remaining when needed
The rate of charge and discharge of any particular memory cell is also limited
The disadvantage is that the high rate of discharge (or charge) of the stored energy can cause tripping leading to power imbalance and stability issues

Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a method performed by a first control unit (21) for controlling a first energy storage (2) in a microgrid. The method comprises calculating a first storage capability parameter for the first energy storage. The method also comprises transmitting capability information about the first storage capability parameter to at least a second control unit configured for controlling a second energy storage in the microgrid. The method also comprises receiving capability information about a second storage capability parameter for the second energy storage from the second control unit. Further, the method comprises calculating a first power sharing ratio for the first energy storage, based on the first and second storage capabilities. Subsequently, the method comprises sending control signals comprising information based on the calculated first power sharing ratio, for controlling said first energy storage to inject an amount of power (P) into the microgrid in accordance with the first power sharing ratio for correcting an observed deviation ( delta f; delta Y) in the microgrid.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates to a method of a control unit for controlling energy storage in a microgrid and such a control unit. Background technique [0002] Microgrids are localized groupings of generation, energy storage and loads that are typically connected to traditional centralized grid operations via points of common coupling. A microgrid is part of a so-called distributed generation structure intended to generate electrical power locally from many small energy sources which may be called distributed generators (DG:s) or microsources. [0003] In microgrids, system stability is improved with the application of energy storage for continuous active and reactive power injection as a stabilizer for the microgrid. The main control principle of such a stabilizer is active and reactive power injection based on local frequency and voltage deviations, respectively. In most cases, larger storage / stabilizers are economical. However, in a microgrid, ...
