Abstract
Integrating battery energy storage systems (BESS) into a coal-fired generator can enhance power systems’ secondary frequency regulation capability. To this end, this paper proposes a policy to coordinate the BESS and the coal-fired generator to meet the automatic generation control (AGC) requirements and subsequently investigates the optimal BESS capacity to maximize the net profit gained from the frequency regulation. Firstly, probability characteristics of AGC instruction duration period, interval period, regulation rate, and regulation direction are investigated according to the real AGC datalog. The AGC regulation direction would change randomly. Directly switching the BESS between charging and discharging to match the requirement would significantly deplete the lifetime of the battery. Therefore, this paper divides the BESS into two groups, which will be controlled stay in charging and discharging states to respectively respond to the AGC requirement of “up” and “down”. To obtain a cost-effective BESS investment, this paper develops a new sizing method, which optimizes the BESS capacity by simulating the operation of the hybrid coal-fired generator and BESS power station (HCGBPS) over an example day. Finally, the case studies justified the developed sizing method could make satisfying BESS investment decisions to ensure a maximum net profit in operation.

期刊介绍:
IEEE Access® is a multidisciplinary, open access (OA), applications-oriented, all-electronic archival journal that continuously presents the results of original research or development across all of IEEE''s fields of interest.
IEEE Access will publish articles that are of high interest to readers, original, technically correct, and clearly presented. Supported by author publication charges (APC), its hallmarks are a rapid peer review and publication process with open access to all readers. Unlike IEEE''s traditional Transactions or Journals, reviews are "binary", in that reviewers will either Accept or Reject an article in the form it is submitted in order to achieve rapid turnaround. Especially encouraged are submissions on:
Multidisciplinary topics, or applications-oriented articles and negative results that do not fit within the scope of IEEE''s traditional journals.
Practical articles discussing new experiments or measurement techniques, interesting solutions to engineering.
Development of new or improved fabrication or manufacturing techniques.
Reviews or survey articles of new or evolving fields oriented to assist others in understanding the new area.
