Increasing wind turbines (WT) penetration and low carbon demand can potentially lead to two different flow peaks, generation and load, within distribution networks. This will not only constrain WT penetration but also pose serious threats to network reliability. This paper proposes energy storage (ES) to reduce system congestion cost caused by the two peaks by sending cost-reflective economic signals to affect ES operation in responding to network conditions. Firstly, a new charging and discharging (C/D) strategy based on Binary Search Method is designed for ES, which responds to system congestion cost over time. Then, a novel pricing method, based on Location Marginal Pricing, is designed for ES. The pricing model is derived by evaluating ES impact on the network power flows and congestion from the loss and congestion components in Location Marginal Pricing. The impact is then converted into an hourly economic signal to reflect ES operation. The proposed ES C/D strategy and pricing methods are validated on a real local Grid Supply Point area. Results show that the proposed Location Marginal Pricing-based pricing is efficient to capture the feature of ES and provide signals for affecting its operation. This work can further increase network flexibility and the capability of networks to accommodate increasing WT penetration.

With the rapid growth in renewable energy and battery storage technologies, there exists significant opportunity to improve energy efficiency and reduce costs through optimization. However, optimization algorithms must take into account the underlyin g dynamics and uncertainties of the various interconnected subsystems in order to fully realize this potential. To this end, we formulate and solve an energy management optimization problem as a Markov Decision Process (MDP) consisting of battery storage dynamics, a stochastic demand model, a stochastic solar generation model, and an electricity pricing scheme. The stochastic model for predicting solar generation is constructed based on weather forecast data from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. A near-optimal policy design is proposed via stochastic dynamic programming. Simulation results are presented in the context of storage and solar-integrated residential and commercial building environments. Results indicate that the near-optimal policy significantly reduces the operating costs compared to several heuristic alternatives. The proposed framework facilitates the design and evaluation of energy management policies with configurable demand-supply-storage parameters in the presence of weather-induced uncertainties.

It is likely that electricity storage will play a significant role in the balancing of future energy systems. A major challenge is then that of how to assess the contribution of storage to capacity adequacy, i.e. to the ability of such systems to mee t demand. This requires an understanding of how to optimally schedule multiple storage facilities. The present paper studies this problem in the cases where the objective is the minimisation of expected energy unserved (EEU) and also a form of weighted EEU in which the unit cost of unserved energy is higher at higher levels of unmet demand. We also study how the contributions of individual stores may be identified for the purposes of their inclusion in electricity capacity markets.
This work considers energy management in a grid-connected microgrid which consists of multiple conventional generators (CGs), renewable generators (RGs) and energy storage systems (ESSs). A two-stage optimization approach is presented to schedule the power generation, aimed at minimizing the long-term average operating cost subject to operational and service constraints. The first stage of optimization determines hourly unit commitment of the CGs via a day-ahead scheduling, and the second stage performs economic dispatch of the CGs, ESSs and energy trading via an hour-ahead scheduling. The combined solution meets the need of handling large uncertainties in the load demand and renewable generation, and provides an efficient solution under limited computational resource which meets both short-term and long-term quality-of-service requirements. The performance of the proposed strategy is evaluated by simulations based on real load demand and renewable generation data.
Large scale electricity storage is set to play an increasingly important role in the management of future energy networks. A major aspect of the economics of such projects is captured in arbitrage, i.e. buying electricity when it is cheap and selling it when it is expensive. We consider a mathematical model which may account for nonlinear---and possibly stochastically evolving---cost functions, market impact, input and output rate constraints and both time-dependent and time-independent inefficiencies or losses in the storage process. We develop an algorithm which is maximally efficient in the sense that it incorporates the result that, at each point in time, the optimal management decision depends only a finite, and typically short, time horizon. We give examples related to the management of a real-world system. Finally we consider a model in which the associated costs evolve stochastically in time. Our results are formulated in a perfectly general setting which permits their application to other commodity storage problems.
We study the optimal control of storage which is used for both arbitrage and buffering against unexpected events, with particular applications to the control of energy systems in a stochastic and typically time-heterogeneous environment. Our philosop hy is that of viewing the problem as being formally one of stochastic dynamic programming, but of using coupling arguments to provide good estimates of the costs of failing to provide necessary levels of buffering. The problem of control then reduces to that of the solution, dynamically in time, of a deterministic optimisation problem which must be periodically re-solved. We show that the optimal control then proceeds locally in time, in the sense that the optimal decision at each time $t$ depends only on a knowledge of the future costs and stochastic evolution of the system for a time horizon which typically extends only a little way beyond $t$. The approach is thus both computationally tractable and suitable for the management of systems over indefinitely extended periods of time. We develop also the associated strong Lagrangian theory (which may be used to assist in the optimal dimensioning of storage), and we provide characterisations of optimal control policies. We give examples based on Great Britain electricity price data.
