Hello,
I am trying to use Matpower in the sizing of energy storage integrated into a
distribution network. So, what I want to determine are the charging/discharging
power and the energy capacity of the energy storage.
I understand that I can modify the objective function, and add variables and
constraints to OPF formulation in Matpower. On the other hand, MOST can handle
the multiperiod problem to optimize dispatchable storage.
My questions are:1- Can I add the storage unit to the model, where the
PMAX-PMIN would be variables. Then, Add energy storage constraint that tie the
system in time. And run the OPF problem in a loop for a multi period? if so,
how does one implement this in MATPOWER's case structure?
2- OR Can I modify the objective function of MOST and add the
charging/discharging power and the energy capacity of the energy storage as
variables? Is it possible with MOST? If yes, how?
Thank you,
Ahmed Abdalrahman
