Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Energy storage systems (ESSs) are receiving growing attention as main stream solutions for the widespread use of renewable energies and subsequently as a means of decarbonizing the electrification of society. At the building scale, they are increasingly utilized to enhance heat and cooling energy recovery, promote distributed energy supply and improve the efficiency of cities in reducing their peak demands by helping the utility companies to maintain reliable and resilient generation and distribution capacities. As energy storage systems are well-positioned to bridge the inputs from renewable and recovered energies with the energy demand across varied scales, geographies, and times, there is a pressing need to expand the research in systems’ modeling and analysis of energy storage technologies and their applications. This is of particular importance due to the various types of energy storage technologies in varied sizes and scales, and their diverse operational characteristics and challenges with respect to efficiency and reliability. In doing so, artificial intelligence provides an opportunity to better adapt energy storage systems with changing environmental conditions, dynamic characteristics of the grid, intermittent nature of renewables, thus improving the reliability and resilience of these systems. AI is widely applied in the sizing, scheduling, control, and optimization of energy systems. This Special Issue intends to collect and disseminate the state of the art on research and practice in applications of AI in modeling and analysis of energy storage systems with a focus on the following (and other closely related) topics:

  • Energy supply predictions for integration of renewable energies and ESSs;
  • Energy demand and critical load predictions for ESSs control and operation;
  • Capacity planning and sizing of ESSs;
  • Optimized scheduling of ESSs;
  • Monitoring and control of ESSs;
  • Fault detection, diagnosis, and reliability analysis for ESSs;
  • Distributed management of ESSs;
  • Data analytics for life cycle analysis of ESSs;
  • Location-specific systems analysis for ESSs.

In the off-grid photovoltaic DC microgrid, traditional droop control encounters challenges in effectively adjusting the droop coefficient in response to varying power fluctuation frequencies, which can be influenced by factors such as line impedance. This paper introduces a novel Multi-strategy Harris Hawk Optimization Algorithm (MHHO) that integrates variable universe fuzzy control theory with droop control to develop an adaptive variable universe fuzzy droop control strategy. The algorithm employs Fuch mapping to evenly distribute the initial population across the solution space and incorporates logarithmic spiral and improved adaptive weight strategies during both the exploration and exploitation phases, enhancing its ability to escape local optima. A comparative analysis against five classical meta-heuristic algorithms on the CEC2017 benchmarks demonstrates the superior performance of the proposed algorithm. Ultimately, the adaptive variable universe fuzzy droop control based on MHHO dynamically optimizes the droop coefficient to mitigate the negative impact of internal system factors and achieve a balanced power distribution between the battery and super-capacitor in the DC microgrid. Through MATLAB/Simulink simulations, it is demonstrated that the proposed adaptive variable universe fuzzy droop control strategy based on MHHO can limit the fluctuation range of bus voltage within ±0.75%, enhance the robustness and stability of the system, and optimize the charge and discharge performance of the energy storage unit.

In recent years, battery fires have become more common owing to the increased use of lithium-ion batteries. Therefore, monitoring technology is required to detect battery anomalies because battery fires cause significant damage to systems. We used Mahalanobis distance (MD) and independent component analysis (ICA) to detect early battery faults in a real-world energy storage system (ESS). The fault types included historical data of battery overvoltage and humidity anomaly alarms generated by the system management program. These are typical preliminary symptoms of thermal runaway, the leading cause of lithium-ion battery fires. The alarms were generated by the system management program based on thresholds. If a fire occurs in an ESS, the humidity inside the ESS will increase very quickly, which means that threshold-based alarm generation methods can be risky. In addition, industrial datasets contain many outliers for various reasons, including measurement and communication errors in sensors. These outliers can lead to biased training results for models. Therefore, we used MD to remove outliers and performed fault detection based on ICA. The proposed method determines confidence limits based on statistics derived from normal samples with outliers removed, resulting in well-defined thresholds compared to existing fault detection methods. Moreover, it demonstrated the ability to detect faults earlier than the point at which alarms were generated by the system management program: 15 min earlier for battery overvoltage and 26 min earlier for humidity anomalies.
