Abstract

This paper presents a mixed-integer linear programming (MILP) formulation for sizing and siting of battery energy storage systems (BESSs). The problem formulation seeks to minimize both operation costs and BESS investment. The proposed model includes restrictions of the conventional security-constrained unit commitment problem, a piece-wise linear approximation to model power losses, and a linear model of hydro generation units. The proposed model is tested in a 6-bus test system and a 15-bus system representing the Colombian power system. For the two studied systems, simulation results show that the reduction of operation costs due to the installation of BESSs compensates the investments, under some of the considered technical cost cases. Additionally, results show that adequate sizing and siting of BESSs reduce renewable energy curtailment in the Colombian power system with high penetration of fluctuating renewable generation.
