Performance testing is a critical component of safe and reliable deployment of energy storage systems on the electric power grid. Specific performance tests can be applied to individual battery cells or to integrated energy storage systems.
Capacity testing is performed to understand how much charge / energy a battery can store and how efficient it is. In energy storage applications, it is often just as important how much energy a battery can absorb, hence we measure both charge and discharge capacities.
This overview of currently available safety standards for batteries for stationary battery energy storage systems shows that a number of standards exist that include some of the safety tests required by the Regulation concerning batteries and waste batteries, forming a good basis for the development of the regulatory tests.
Integrated system tests are applied uniformly across energy storage technologies to yield performance data. Duty-cycle testing can produce data on application-specific performance of energy storage systems. This chapter reviewed a range of duty-cycle tests intended to measure performance of energy storage supplying grid services.
The goal of the stored energy test is to calculate how much energy can be supplied discharging, how much energy must be supplied recharging, and how efficient this cycle is. The test procedure applied to the DUT is as follows: Specify charge power Pcha and discharge power Pdis Preconditioning (only performed before testing starts):
1. Introduction Battery energy storage systems (BESSs) are being installed in power systems around the world to improve efficiency, reliability, and resilience. This is driven in part by: engineers finding better ways to utilize battery storage, the falling cost of batteries, and improvements in BESS performance.
