EPSRC Manifest Energy Storage System (ESS) Latency Test, Newcastle University

Description:

In this experiment the response time of an Energy Storage System (ESS) was measured in the Smart Grid laboratory at Newcastle University. Real-time simulation was carried out using a TRIPHASE real-time simulator to model the ESS network, allowing the laboratory hardware to operate as though it is coupled to a real distribution-scale network. The ESS emulator was used to represent the characteristics of a Li-Ion battery with a single string of 50 series cells, each with a nominal voltage of 4 V and a capacity of 200 Ah; these parameters were selected in order to set the nominal voltage, power and energy ratings of the ESS to 200 V, 20 kW and 40 kWh respectively.

The data were collected as part of an experiment within the MANIFEST project to study the response time of an ESS using the Smart Grid Laboratory at Newcastle University, UK.

The EPSRC funded Multi-scale ANalysis for Facilities for Energy STorage (Manifest) Project (EP/N032888/1) aimed to study and investigate the capabilities of energy storage systems installed in UK Universities.
