【 摘 要 】

The shifting from the traditional centralized electric sector to a distributed and renewable system presents some challenges. Battery energy storage technologies have proven effective in relieving some aspects of this transition by facilitating load control and providing flexibility to non-dispatchable renewable production. Therefore, this paper investigates how to dimension battery energy storage systems with applied multi-tasking strategies in microgrids. To this end, it proposes a framework to accurately depict how BESS can be financially and technically feasible by deploying multi-tasking strategies that fit the system characteristics of a microgrid while providing arguments for the financial incentive. The framework development is based on the principles of the analytical approach and is conceptualized in a three-part funnel structure. This framework has been tested using the case study of Aeroe microgrid and resulted in a proposed battery energy storage configuration. Based on the findings, the BESS implementation contributes to improve load behavior and to increase internal production utilization. A sensitivity analysis was performed, to investigate the robustness of the configurations. Collectively, the framework has proven to provide feasible results within a wide range of parameters. This framework could help the preliminary investigation phase when analyzing future battery energy storage system investments.
