Storage Systems: Case Studies

Learning Outcome

After the successful participation in the course Storage Systems: Case Studies the students are able to:

  • understand why we must store in an isolated system
  • understand why we should store in a system connected to the network
  • understand at what level we can store
  • understand the main electrical energy storage technologies

Content

  • General information on storage systems
  • Study of a hydrogen storage system
  • Super capacitor energy storage system
  • Battery electric storage system
  • Application 1: Electric power generation based on WECS-SC under load disturbance
  • Application 2: BESS for smoothing load power curves in smart grid
