Optimal sizing and siting of energy storage systems considering curtailable photovoltaic generation in power distribution networks
Fabrizio Sossan, Rahul Kumar Gupta
This work proposes a method for optimal planning (sizing and siting) energy storage systems (ESSs) in power distribution grids while considering the option of curtailing photo-voltaic (PV) generation. More specifically, for a given PV generation capacity t ...
2023Performance Comparison of Alternating Direction Optimization Methods for Linear-OPF based Real-time Predictive Control
Mario Paolone, Fabrizio Sossan, Rahul Kumar Gupta, Vladimir Sovljanski
The paper contributes to improving the computational performance of controls of distributed energy resources (DERs) in distribution grids for efficient real-time control and short-term scheduling. The considered setting is a distribution grid with heteroge ...
IEEE2021Performance assessment of grid-forming and grid-following converter-interfaced battery energy storage systems on frequency regulation in low-inertia power grids
Mario Paolone, Fabrizio Sossan, Yihui Zuo, Antonio Zecchino, Zhao Yuan
Power systems with large shares of converter-interfaced renewables may be characterised by low grid inertia due to the lack of frequency containment provided by synchronous generators. Battery energy storage systems (BESSs), which can adjust their power ou ...
2021Characterizing the Reserve Provision Capability Area of Active Distribution Networks: A Linear Robust Optimization Method
Fabrizio Sossan, Mokhtar Bozorg, Mohsen Kalantar Neyestanaki
Distributed energy resources (DERs) installed in active distribution networks (ADNs) can be exploited to provide both active and reactive power reserves to the upper-layer grid (i.e., sub-transmission and transmission systems) at their connection point. Th ...
2021Compound Admittance Matrix Estimation of Three-phase Untransposed Power Distribution Grids using Synchrophasor Measurements
Jean-Yves Le Boudec, Mario Paolone, Fabrizio Sossan, Rahul Kumar Gupta
The paper considers the problem of estimating the parameters of the compound admittance matrix of three-phase untransposed low-and medium-voltage electrical distribution networks using synchrophasor measurements from phasor measurement units (PMUs). The wo ...
2021Siting and Sizing of Energy Storage Systems: Towards a Unified Approach for Transmission and Distribution System Operators for Reserve Provision and Grid Support
Mario Paolone, Fabrizio Sossan, Paola Pongiglione
This paper presents a method to determine the optimal location, energy capacity, and power rating of distributed battery energy storage systems at multiple voltage levels to accomplish grid control and reserve provision. We model operational scenarios at a ...
2020Tools for multi time horizon PV point forecasting and prediction intervals
Mario Paolone, Fabrizio Sossan, Enrica Scolari
The massive integration of stochastic renewable generation in modern power systems requires decentralized control schemes that cope with the uncertainties of the distributed energy resources (DERs). Among the DERs, small-scale photovoltaic (PV) systems are ...
SCCER-FURIES2020Countrywide PV hosting capacity and energy storage requirements for distribution networks: The case of Switzerland
Mario Paolone, Fabrizio Sossan, Rahul Kumar Gupta
Distributed photovoltaic (PV) generation is typically connected to power distribution grids, which are not designed to host a large amount of production if it is significantly larger than their nominal electricity demand. Given the prominent role of PV in ...
2020Optimal provision of concurrent primary frequency and local voltage control from a BESS considering variable capability curves: Modelling and experimental assessment
Mario Paolone, Fabrizio Sossan, Antonio Zecchino, Zhao Yuan
This paper proposes a control method for battery energy storage systems (BESSs) to provide concurrent primary frequency and local voltage regulation services. The actual variable active and reactive power capability of the converter, along with the state-o ...
