Optimal Siting and Sizing of Battery Energy Storage: Case Study Seventh Feeder at Nakhon Phanom Substation in Thailand

The optimal siting and sizing of battery energy storage system (BESS) is proposed in this study to improve the performance of the seventh feeder at Nakhon Phanom substation, which is a distribution network with the connected photovoltaic (PV) in Thailand. The considered objective function aims to improve the distribution network performance by minimizing costs incurred in the distribution network within a day, comprising of voltage regulation cost, real power loss cost, and peak demand cost. Particle swarm optimization (PSO) is applied to solve the optimization problem. It is found that the optimal siting and sizing of the BESS installation could improve the performance of the distribution network in terms of cost minimization, voltage profile, real power loss, and peak demand. The results are investigated from three cases where case 1 is without PV and BESS installation, case 2 is with only PV installation, and case 3 is with PV and BESS installations. The comparison results show that case 3 provided the best costs, voltage deviation, real power loss, and peak demand compared to those of cases 1 and 2; system costs provided by cases 1, 2 and 3 are USD 4598, USD 5418, and USD 1467, respectively.
