6 FAQs about [Energy storage test procedures]
What is energy storage performance testing?
Performance testing is a critical component of safe and reliable deployment of energy storage systems on the electric power grid. Specific performance tests can be applied to individual battery cells or to integrated energy storage systems.
What is a stored energy test?
The goal of the stored energy test is to calculate how much energy can be supplied discharging, how much energy must be supplied recharging, and how efficient this cycle is. The test procedure applied to the DUT is as follows: Specify charge power Pcha and discharge power Pdis Preconditioning (only performed before testing starts):
What is energy storage performance?
Performance, in this context, can be defined as how well a BESS supplies a specific service. The various applications for energy storage systems (ESSs) on the grid are discussed in Chapter 23: Applications and Grid Services. A useful analogy of technical performance is miles per gallon (mpg) in internal combustion engine vehicles.
What is battery capacity testing?
Capacity testing is performed to understand how much charge / energy a battery can store and how efficient it is. In energy storage applications, it is often just as important how much energy a battery can absorb, hence we measure both charge and discharge capacities.
What are testing items and procedures?
Testing items and procedures, including type test, production test, installation evaluation, commissioning test at site, and periodic test, are provided in order to verify whether ESS applied in EPSs meet the safety and reliability requirements of the EPS.
What is a battery energy storage system?
Battery energy storage systems (BESSs) are being installed in power systems around the world to improve efficiency, reliability, and resilience. This is driven in part by: engineers finding better ways to utilize battery storage, the falling cost of batteries, and improvements in BESS performance.
