Technical FAQs 4

Should low level distribution systems be managed at the substation level?

Recently, the idea of managing low level distribution systems at the substation level to aid in power system operation has emerged. Authors of 22 presented a substation equipped with ESS as a mobile system.

Should electric vehicle charging be a ESS management scheme for individual substations?

While studies on electric vehicle charging considering the variability of renewable energy or load are widely studied, ESS management scheme for individual substations requires further optimization, especially considering the state of distributed sources at lower levels and transmission system operators.

Are ESS-equipped substations a viable solution for resolving site constraints?

Especially, recent development of hub substations (HS/S) equipped with ESS, applicable for resolving site constraints if implemented as mobile transformers, is expanding the development of ESS-equipped facilities. However, these units require centralized control strategies considering variability within integrated networks.

Why should a TSO Size ESS capacity?

By appropriately sizing the ESS capacity, the TSO can regulate the net load of each distribution network, thereby reducing uncertainty and enhancing the stability of the transmission system. Comprehensive optimal control strategy for HS/S connected system.
