Decentralized Control for Heterogeneous Battery Energy Storage System (2404.10439v1)

Abstract: Battery energy storage systems (BESSs) are essential for stable power supply in renewable energy systems that can operate in all weather. Future BESSs will be massive and pluggable with several heterogeneous batteries. In this paper, a novel decentralized control method for a heterogeneous BESS is proposed, in which each battery autonomously operates based on its characteristics. First, a control method that uses only one broadcast signal for each type of battery is proposed. Second, the asymptotic stability of the tracking error is proved. Third, numerical simulations confirm that the proposed control method has robust tracking performance of the total electric power to the demanded power when some batteries fail and are detached from the system. Last, in order to suppress degradation of battery, equalization of the state of charge is achieved for each type of battery without communication among the batteries.
