Hello everyone,
Recently, I carried out an AC OPF for a high-voltage power grid. With roughly
70% of the installed net capacity from renewables, I'm curious if Matpower
offers a battery storage model.
I'm considering a basic model where it behaves like a generator when injecting
power into the grid and draws power with a negative sign during charging.
While I don't have a concrete formula, I'm thinking of a slight alteration to
the charge and discharge rate so that it's not constant:
Rate_{charge}(SoC) = Rate_{max, charge} * (1 - SoC)
Rate_{discharge}(SoC) = Rate_{max, discharge}* SoC
Does anyone know if Matpower includes a basic storage model suitable for AC
power flow studies?
Best regards
Heller
