Scalable Mobile Energy Storage Containers for Power Grid Distribution Stations

What is a mobile energy storage system?

A mobile energy storage system is composed of a mobile vehicle, battery system and power conversion system . Relying on its spatial–temporal flexibility, it can be moved to different charging stations to exchange energy with the power system.

How do mobile energy-storage systems improve power grid security?

For more information on the journal statistics, click here. Multiple requests from the same IP address are counted as one view. In the high-renewable penetrated power grid, mobile energy-storage systems (MESSs) enhance power grids’ security and economic operation by using their flexible spatiotemporal energy scheduling ability.

What is the optimal scheduling model of mobile energy storage systems?

The optimal scheduling model of mobile energy storage systems is established. Mobile energy storage systems work coordination with other resources. Regulation and control methods of resources generate a bilevel optimization model. Resilience of distribution network is enhanced through bilevel optimization.

What is a transportable energy storage system?

Referred to as transportable energy storage systems, MESSs are generally vehicle-mounted container battery systems equipped with standard-ized physical interfaces to allow for plug-and-play operation. Their transportation could be powered by a diesel engine or the energy from the batteries themselves.
