A generalized synthesis load model considering network parameters and all-vanadium redox flow battery

Abstract

The simulation precision of the classic load model (CLM) is affected by the increasing proportion of installed energy storage capacity in the grid. This paper studies the all-vanadium redox flow battery (VRB) and proposes an equivalent model based on the measurement-based load modeling method, which can simulate the maximum output of the VRB energy storage system and fit the external characteristic of the system precisely in the occurrence of large disturbance and continuous small disturbance. The equivalent model is connected to CLM to form a generalized synthesis load model (GSLM), which considers the parameters of distribution network and reactive power compensation. Compared with CLM, GSLM has better structures and can describe the load characteristics of distribution network with energy storage system more precisely. Simulation results validate the effectiveness and good parameter stability of GSLM, and show that the higher the proportion of energy storage in the grid is the better description ability GSLM has.
