Wind-Battery Energy Storage System Topology. The grid power (P grid) is the combination of the wind power output (P wind) and the battery power (P BESS). The BESS is connected at a point of common coupling through a converter and can supply or extract power from the system.
Within the variety of energy storage systems available, the battery energy storage system (BESS) is the most utilized to smooth wind power output. However, the capacity of BESS to compensate for fluctuations is usually exceptionally large, which will increase the capital cost of the system and reducing its suitability.
It is well known that the wind speed is fluctuant and, because of this, the wind generator delivers a variable electrical power. To overcome this drawback, a Li-ion battery storage system is installed in order to produce an additional energy and regulate the electric power delivered to the isolated grid .
