Quantification of primary frequency control provision from battery energy storage systems connected to active distribution networks

Mario Paolone, Fabrizio Sossan, Emil Namor, Giacomo Piero Schiapparelli

In this paper, we consider the provision of primary frequency control by using battery energy storage systems (BESSs). In particular, we use a standard droop-based frequency control for a BESS where the control action (i.e. the BESS power output) consists ...
