RT Journal Article T1 Optimal battery sizing considering degradation for renewable energy integration A1 De-la-Torre-Fazio, Sebastián Bienvenido A1 González-González, José Manuel A1 Aguado-Sánchez, José Antonio A1 Martín-Rivas, Sebastián K1 Aprendizaje automático (Inteligencia artificial) K1 Baterías de acumuladores AB The problem of sizing an electrochemical energy storage system for renewable energy integration is a complex task. There are several system input parameters that must be taken into account for a correct design. Among them, the ageing characteristic of the technology, the service that the system provides, i.e. the power profile that the system faces and the desired C-rate are considered. A simple solution for this problem is not available in the literature. This study presents a simple yet robust optimisation-based model for renewable energy integration. The model explicitly takes into account the intrinsic battery ageing process. The authors propose a formulation for the optimisation problem that can be written in terms of just one continuous variable, namely, the amount of energy that the battery is able to store (battery size); using the proposed procedure, solving the problem obtained is a relatively straightforward task. Results are first discussed using an illustrative example and later extended to two real case studies.
