Hi All, looking for some advice. First off I'm a mechanical engineer with limited experience of electrical control systems.
Basically I have been given a thesis on developing a control system for battery storage with wind. I will have a computer to send commands to the battery for active power (when to discharge and charge) and reactive power (basically using the battery as a power factor correction capacitor bank). The battery is a ZBB ZESS 500, a 500kWh ‘plug and play’ system consisting of ten zinc bromide 50kWh modules and the turbine is a Vestas 850kW
If any of you have any experience in this area could you make suggestions how I would approach this thesis or if there are any good sources of info on the net that you may have come across. I'm making up a proposal document at the minute. I've experience in Matlab and I'm brushing up on Homer to model the system.
Thanks for any info and advice.
