To mitigate the reduced inertia-related problems and consequences, this paper presents improved FOCs for achieving load frequency control (LFC) and the virtual inertia control (VIC) provision of electric vehicles (EVs) lithium-ion batteries. The proposed method includes a twofold contribution using a new hybrid FOC method and an optimum control parameter design method. An innovative hybrid controller is proposed by merging the characteristics of FOPID and TID methods with a fractional filtering stage, leading to hybrid tilt plus FOC integrator-derivative terms. From the VIC side, the TID is proposed to provide a fast response to lithium-ion batteries of the already available EVs. Furthermore, a metaheuristic-based design method is proposed to simultaneously determine the best control parameters set and to facilitate the design procedures using the recently presented powerful growth optimization algorithm (GO). The two interconnected areas case study with high-RES penetration is suggested for testing and investigating the new proposed controller. The results include performance evaluations and comparisons at various expected model uncertainties, renewable energy intermittency, and parametric variations. For instance, the proposed VIC method has a minimized ISE after 28 iterations of 0.001 compared to 0.003 with conventional VIC, and 0.004 without VIC. Thence,the proposed controller achieves more accurate frequency tracking with reduced deviations and fluctuations and exhibits greater robustness compared to previous controllers used in all case studies.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":15942,"journal":{"name":"Journal of energy storage","volume":"106 ","pages":"Article 114582"},"PeriodicalIF":8.9,"publicationDate":"2024-11-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142747277","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Furthermore, SSBs that operate efficiently at room temperature with high energy and power density have yet to be demonstrated, primarily due to internal challenges such as low ionic conductivity at the electrode-solid-state electrolyte (SSE) interfaces. Conventional SSB designs must address issues including the volume changes in active materials, the mechanical properties of the components, and the overall sustainability of the fabricated device. There is a critical need to enhance surface contact at the interfaces, match grain boundary levels across materials, and achieve high ion transport at room temperature in all-solid-state batteries (ASSBs).

First, we describe and model the dynamic frequency response characteristics after disturbances, derive the expressions for the system frequency nadir and maximum nodal RoCoF (MN-RoCoF). Second, we address net load uncertainty using the distributionally robust chance constrained (DRCC) approach and incorporate frequency security constraints into the BESS configuration optimization model, embedding the short-term system operation model into the long-term BESS planning. Then, to tackle the highly nonlinear MN-RoCoF constraint, we propose a divide and conquer-based support vector machine (D&C-SVM), to extract the linear relationship between the BESS virtual inertia constant and MN-RoCoF, reformulating the proposed scheme into a mixed-integer second-order cone programming (MISOCP). Finally, we conducted case studies on the IEEE 39-bus and 118-bus test systems. The results verify that the proposed configuration scheme can ensure that the RoCoF at all nodes remains below 1 Hz/s under the preset disturbances.
