NREL supported the development and acceptance testing of a microgrid battery energy storage system developed by EaglePicher Technologies as part of an effort sponsored by U.S. Northern Command. The three-tiered, 300-kW/386-kWh grid-tied system is capable of providing grid stabilization, microgrid support, and on-command power response.
However, increasingly, microgrids are being based on energy storage systems combined with renewable energy sources (solar, wind, small hydro), usually backed up by a fossil fuel-powered generator. The main advantage of a microgrid: higher reliability.
Therefore, resilient restoration strategies are of great significance for mitigating the adverse effects of natural disasters on the power system. Due to its ability to autonomously switch between grid-connected and islanded operation modes, microgrids (MGs) offer a promising solution to enhance the resilience of the power system.
A microgrid is a group of interconnected loads and distributed energy resources that acts as a single controllable entity with respect to the grid. It can connect and disconnect from the grid to operate in grid-connected or island mode. Microgrids can improve customer reliability and resilience to grid disturbances.
To address these challenges, the microgrid will include a rapid solid-state switch to protect the microgrid from grid disturbances. NREL collaborated with Caterpillar to test a prototype utility-scale energy storage inverter and microgrid controller.
Researchers are constructing a scaled model of the microgrid by employing power and controller hardware to represent the distributed energy resources—including a large PV plant, energy storage systems, and diesel generators— while other circuit components are virtually represented in a model on real-time digital simulators.
The global industrial and commercial energy storage market is experiencing explosive growth, with demand increasing by over 250% in the past two years.
