Optimal Combination of Frequency Control and Peak Shaving with Battery Storage Systems
Jonas Engels, Bert Claessens, Geert Deconinck
Combining revenue streams by providing multiple services with battery storage systems increases profitability and enhances the investment case. In this work, we present a novel opt…
Grid-Constrained Distributed Optimization for Frequency Control with Low-Voltage Flexibility
Jonas Engels, Bert Claessens, Geert Deconinck
Providing frequency control services with flexible assets connected to the low-voltage distribution grid, amongst which residential battery storage or electrical hot water boilers,…
Techno-Economic Analysis and Optimal Control of Battery Storage for Frequency Control Services, Applied to the German Market
Jonas Engels, Bert Claessens, Geert Deconinck
Optimal investment in battery energy storage systems, taking into account degradation, sizing and control, is crucial for the deployment of battery storage, of which providing freq…
Peer-to-Peer Control of Microgrids
Hamada Almasalma, Jonas Engels, Geert Deconinck
In this paper, the motivation to develop microgrids as an effective solution for the control of distribution networks with high level penetration of Distributed Energy Resources(DE…
Dual-decomposition-based peer-to-peer voltage control for distribution networks
Hamada Almasalma, Jonas Engels, Geert Deconinck
The increasing penetration of distributed energy resources (DERs) creates new voltage issues in distribution networks. This study proposes an algorithm that mitigates these issues,…
Combined Stochastic Optimization of Frequency Control and Self-Consumption with a Battery
Jonas Engels, Bert Claessens, Geert Deconinck
Optimally combining frequency control with self-consumption can increase revenues from battery storage systems installed behind-the-meter. This work presents an optimized control s…
