Study on business continuity capability by cooperative operation of photovotaic and battery energy storage system

Abstract

In this study, as a new index of facilities, business continuity capability on occasion of an energetically isolated operation, was defined and evaluated for the facility with a rich amount of resources such as private generators, a battery energy storage system and a PV generation system. A methodology was proposed to evaluate a duration during which the facility is self- sustaining regarding energy use. An effect of reducing the capacity of PV or battery was also examined.
