Energy Storage & Grid

Battery storage sized through the full energy chain, and the grid studies that prove a plant can connect, ride through faults and be protected properly.

What we do

  1. 01

    BESS sizing

    Power and energy sized through the chain from factory acceptance to the point of interconnection: auxiliaries, conversion, transformer and line losses, degradation and augmentation.

  2. 02

    Grid load-flow & short-circuit

    Steady-state load-flow, contingency and short-circuit studies at the connection point and inside the plant.

  3. 03

    Single-line diagrams

    SLDs drawn from the model and exchanged with common power-system study formats (DGS, CGMES, pandapower).

  4. 04

    Distribution protection

    Protection coordination for distribution networks, relay settings and fault location.

  5. 05

    Grid strength & compliance

    Short-circuit ratio, reactive capability and grid-code requirements for inverter-based plants.

  6. 06

    Testing

    BESS and distribution test plans from FAT through site acceptance to grid-code compliance tests.

Method

  1. 01

    Use case

    Arbitrage, ancillary services, firming or backup defined first.

  2. 02

    Energy chain

    Usable energy traced from cell to point of interconnection.

  3. 03

    Network model

    Plant and grid modelled; load-flow and faults simulated.

  4. 04

    Protection

    Settings and selectivity proven, fault location planned.

  5. 05

    Test & accept

    Test plans written before equipment ships.
