Grid code requirements in the UK for the connection of BESS in wind systems

Résumé

The ambitions to reach zero greenhouse gas emissions set in the UK by 2050 in the climate change act constitutes a major technical challenge for all participants. Thus, transmission and distribution networks are changing and adapting to a mix of technologies at all voltage levels of power generation and consumption. Future power networks will be dominated by wind and solar generation with the support of electrical energy storage (EES), especially of battery energy storage systems (BESS) in the presence of some remaining synchronous generation units of hydro, nuclear, and open cycle gas turbine (OCGT) fuelled by green sources. This paper discusses the advantages of BESS which has been demonstrated to be the most promising technology of EES to overcome several of the technical challenges for the integration of renewable energy systems (RES). A summary of the services provided by BESS technologies is presented, and the electrical control strategy employed. The BESS grid code acceptance requirements that BESS needs to comply with in the UK before its connection to the power network. A description of static and time-domain BESS study assessments is presented. The simulation results of a wind plant and BESS hybrid system are analyzed and recommendations are made according to the grid code dynamic compliance requirements.
