2. unctions of Power Conversion Systems (PCS) in a Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) Bidirectional Conversion: The primary role of PCS is to convert the DC power generated or stored in the batteries into AC power that can be fed into the grid. Similarly, during charging, it converts incoming AC power into DC for storage in the batteries.
Battery energy storage systems (BESS) are widely used for renewable energy applications, especially in stabilizing the power system with ancillary services. The objective of this paper is to propose an active and reactive power controller for a BESS in microgrids.
This bidirectional flow ensures that energy is stored and released efficiently, maintaining system stability and supporting grid needs. The PCS also communicates with the Battery Management System (BMS), ensuring safe operation and balancing the energy flow between the storage system and the grid.
The reactive power control is part of CEI 0-16 and CEI 0-21, Italian standards defining the rules of connection of active and passive users to the grid (Delfanti et al., 2015).
