IEEE PES ESPAÑA & Catedra Endesa de la Universidad de Sevilla | [Webinar(1º) 17.02.2022] THE ENERGY TRANSITION | Towards a DECARBONIZED ENERGY | Utility-scale and distributed batteries in renewables-dominated power systems: lessons learned from Australia – Session I: System integration and technical performance
Estimados Miembros del Capítulo IEEE PES ESPAÑA y de la comunidad de sistemas eléctricos de potencia,
Dear IEEE PES Spain Members and Colleagues from power and energy community,
Continuing with the [Webinar] series on the topic
LA TRANSICIÓN ENERGETICA | Hacia una ECONOMIA DESCARBONIZADA
THE ENERGY TRANSITION | Towards a DECARBONIZED ECONOMY
The energy transition towards a decarbonized economy will present a relevant challenge and a crucial transformation faced by our Society; Decelerating climate change effects is becoming a moral commitment.
As a society, we are part of the decarbonized energy process that goes through the electrification of the economy and it is supported by renewables within a sustainable energy model.
This means a change of paradigm which heads towards an immediate exciting future full of challenges at all levels associated with flexibility in its widest conception. It is assumed that a change of paradigm, that requires changing the focus from active based asset management towards the digitalization that ensures resiliency and security for the future electric systems.
In this context, we need to contribute and stimulate the exchange of ideas from different perspectives and experiences, creating a framework of reflection through these series of webinars. The expected benefit and impact is the identification of opportunities within the complexity associated with the change of paradigm.
The first [Webinar] 2022 will be delivered as follows.
In this occasion, organised by IEEE PES CHAPTER and sponsored by CATEDRA ENDESA DE LA UNIVERSIDAD DE SEVILLA , Prof. Pierluigi Mancarella (University of Melbourne, Australia and University of Manchester, UK) shares with us, as PES Distinguished Lecturer, his experience on utility-scale and distributed batteries in renewables-dominated power systems: lessons learned from Australia. This content will be delivered within two Sessions (Session I - 17/2/2022 : System integration and technical performance; Session II - 24/2/2022 : Techno-economic and commercial aspects)
Title: Utility-scale and distributed batteries in renewables-dominated power systems: lessons learned from Australia – Session I: System integration and technical performance
Content: The South Australia “black system” event of September 2016 may be regarded as the first ‘textbook’ example of security and resilience issues that may appear in a renewables-dominated grid that may naturally be more ‘fragile’ and sensitive to weather. At the same time, that event and the ongoing operational challenges have prompted the development and deployment of a number of innovative smart grid technologies and commercial solutions. In particular, battery energy storage systems (BESS) of different sizes and applications, ranging from utility-scale (order of 100 MW) to community batteries (order of MW) to household-level batteries (order of kW) are penetrating the Australian market to provide both system security and resilience services as well as exploit market opportunities due to highly volatile energy and ancillary services prices in a renewables-dominated system.
In these two lectures, which are held as part of the IEEE Power and Energy Society Distinguished Lecture Programme, we will present, based on real-world experiences as well as ongoing research projects in Australia, how BESS are increasingly being deployed at different scales as effective technologies to manage the challenges of a renewables-dominated grid and market. More specifically, in Lecture, 1 we will discuss how different BESS can provide different essential system services, also depending on their technology and control strategies (e.g., grid-following vs grid-forming vs virtual synchronous machine configurations), and their performance when operating in low-inertia and/or weak grid conditions. In Lecture 2, we will then discuss how commercial opportunities and business cases are being/may be built around different types of BESS. Finally, we will provide examples of recent research projects and field trials looking into developing new market frameworks to properly value the system and network services provided by BESS, proposing new pricing mechanisms when dealing with BESS-based DER such as for community energy systems or as part of virtual power plants, and overcoming relevant regulatory challenges.

Prof. Pierluigi Mancarella
Utility-scale and distributed batteries in renewables-dominated power systems: lessons learned from Australia
Biography:
Pierluigi Mancarella is Chair Professor of Electrical Power Systems at the University of Melbourne, Australia, and part-time Professor of Smart Energy Systems at the University of Manchester, UK.
Pierluigi obtained the PhD degree in Electrical Energy Systems from the Politecnico di Torino, Italy, was a Research Associate at Imperial College London, UK, and held visiting research positions at Sintef/NTNU in Norway and NREL in Colorado, as well as visiting professorships at Ecole Centrale de Lille in France, the Universidad de Chile, and Tsinghua University in China.
In the last 15 years Pierluigi has been involved in/led some 70 research projects and consultancy and professional activities in the UK, Europe, Australia, and internationally, in the areas of multi-energy systems, grid integration of renewables, reliability and resilience of low-carbon networks, and energy infrastructure planning under uncertainty.
Pierluigi is author of several books and book chapters and over 300 research papers. Among his various activities, he is an Editor of the IEEE Transactions on Smart Grid, the IEEE Transactions on Power Systems, and the brand-new Oxford Open Energy journal; an IEEE Power and Energy Society Distinguished Lecturer; the past Chair of the Energy Working Group of the IEEE European Public Policy Initiative; the Convenor of the Cigre Working Group C6/C2.34 “Flexibility provision from distributed energy resources”; the lead of the “Regulatory Framework” Task of the Cigre Working Group C4.47 “Power system resilience”; and the Technical Chair of the 2022 International Symposium on Microgrids. Pierluigi is the recipient of a 2018 International Newton Prize for his research work on power system resilience to earthquakes in Chile and, in the past five years, has been a regular consultant for the Australian government, the Australian energy market operator, the Australian energy market commission, and the Australian energy regulator, on low-carbon power system security and resilience matters.
