Is a multi-markets biding strategy decision model based on a grid-side battery energy storage system?

Abstract: A multi-markets biding strategy decision model with grid-side battery energy storage system (BESS) as an independent market operator is proposed in this paper.

What is the optimal bidding strategy for ESSs in the FRP market?

This study introduces a stochastic optimisation framework for participation of ESSs in the FRP market. The proposed model formulates the optimal bidding strategy of ESSs considering the real-time energy, flexible ramp-up and ramp-down marginal price signals and the associated uncertainties.

How is the bidding strategy implemented?

The bidding strategy is implemented on the real-time price signals of Fig. 4 (the average of ten MCS) and is tabulated in Table 2. In this table, the two-level bids (one for energy and one for FRP) when the FRU or FRD prices are greater than 0.5$/MWh are demonstrated.

What is the bidding strategy of ESS based on energy and FRP price signals?

The bidding strategy of ESS based on energy and FRP price signals in order to maximise its profitability is described in Section 4. The case study and numerical results are investigated in Section 5 and eventually, the concluding remarks are presented in Section 6.

Can a battery storage owner bid in multiple markets?

A battery storage owner may submit bids in multiple markets. Prices of different electricity market products are either positively correlated or negatively correlated with each other. Thus, the objective of maximising profits with a certain risk level can be achieved by selecting an optimal portfolio.

When should a bid be greater than the energy capacity?

According to Fig. 3, the bid should be greater than with the energy capacity equal to in order to approach an optimal energy purchase. The FRU will be enabled if the ESS submits a bid with power level equal to the desired FRU value and a price between and .
