Battery energy storage in utility-scale transmission grids provides the benefit of fast response, however, efficient battery control in multi-battery multi-bus systems can be challenging. We present here a battery operation strategy based on forecasted load and line ampacity. The forecasted load is serviced via conventional generators in combination with battery energy storage whose outputs are co...Show More
Incorporating battery energy storage system together with dynamic thermal line rating has the potential to defer the construction of new transmission lines in multibus systems. This paper presents a linear programming methodology for calculating the optimal battery energy storage system capacity sizing together with the power rating for a multibus system that takes into account battery energy stor...Show More
This work explores the generation of synthetic time-series of dynamic thermal line rating data and Alberta Electric System Operator's hourly pool price data using Wasserstein Generative Adversarial Networks, as part of a larger study on transmission line reliability. The generation of synthetic data is required due to a limited size of the available dataset. Synthetic data can aid in training deep...Show More
The rapid growth in the installations of small scale, distributed energy resources in the recent years is astonishing. However, these installations are putting strain on the grid. This paper introduces the ETX simulation framework that allows for coordinated, repeatable studies of interactions between market, operations, and regulations. In addition, ETX is an excellent environment for artificial ...Show More
