The investigated solution comprises grid-forming (GFM) converters in the wind farm design, which could be battery energy storage systems (BESSs) to also increase the service availability. The challenges are analysed using simulations on a wind farm, and the proposed solutions are discussed.
From 2022 to 2024, the capacity of batteries in both wind farms is narrowed by the scarcity of available second-life batteries. Thus, we could not recover totally from the energy spills with the batteries.
A methodology for the techno-economical assessment of second-life car batteries as a storage solution in wind farms is presented. This method was successfully applied in two wind farms located on Tenerife island. The results delve into the feasibility of the solution, environmental impact, and government policies in terms of subsidy support.
At the end of the studied period, the potential energy surplus that could be stored would be around 8188 MWh for wind farm B, which represents more than 20% of the total energy injected directly from wind turbines in an average year. Conversely, curtailments represent just a 6.7% of total energy injected for wind farm A (according to Eq. (6) ).
The data investigated show that the wind farm consumes up to 363 kW from the grid in lack-of-wind periods. The BESS need to discharge with a power PBat = 363 kW to fully compensate for the power demand during the year investigated.
The self-start unit should be capable of forming the wind farm power island and withstanding transient phenomena due to the equipment energisation. The investigated solution comprises grid-forming (GFM) converters in the wind farm design, which could be battery energy storage systems (BESSs) to also increase the service availability.
