Description

In this experiment the response time of an Energy Storage System (ESS) was measured in the Smart Grid laboratory at Newcastle University. Real-time simulation was carried out using a TRIPHASE real-time simulator to model the ESS network, allowing the laboratory hardware to operate as though it is coupled to a real distribution-scale network. The ESS emulator was used to represent the characteristics of a Li-Ion battery with a single string of 50 series cells, each with a nominal voltage of 4 V and a capacity of 200 Ah; these parameters were selected in order to set the nominal voltage, power and energy ratings of the ESS to 200 V, 20 kW and 40 kWh respectively.

The data were collected as part of an experiment within the MANIFEST project to study the response time of an ESS using the Smart Grid Laboratory at Newcastle University, UK.The EPSRC funded Multi-scale ANalysis for Facilities for Energy STorage (Manifest) Project (EP/N032888/1) aimed to study and investigate the capabilities of energy storage systems installed in UK Universities.

Description

In this experiment the efficiency of an emulated Energy Storage System (ESS) is measured in the Smart Grid laboratory at Newcastle University. Real-time simulation is carried out using a TRIPHASE real-time simulator to model the ESS network, allowing the laboratory hardware to operate as though it is coupled to a real distribution-scale network. The ESS emulator was used to represent the characteristics of three Li-ion battery banks with nominal voltage, power and energy ratings as follows: (i) 200V 1kW 1kWh, (ii) 400V 5kW 5kWh, and (iii) 400V 10kW 10kWh.

The data were collected as part of an experiment within the MANIFEST project to study the efficiency of an emulated supercapacitor using the Smart Grid Laboratory at Newcastle University, UK.

Description

This data represents a set of real and reactive power profiles intended for calibration of multi-scale energy storage systems (ESS) within the EPSRC-funded MANIFEST project. The aim of these tests was to generate a set of comparable datasets using the diversified Energy Storage Systems procured and operated by MANIFEST partners. Herein, a description of the test regimes and data formatting, as carried out by The University of Manchester (TUoM), is presented.
