“…These tests will look at both the lead acid and the lithium ion battery. The other form of tests is aimed at validation of the software optimization formulation and results described in [5] and [6]. This test focuses solely on using the lead acid battery at this point.…”

“…The optimization problem presented in [5] and [6] focused on minimizing the cost of electric energy supplied to a customer. The default situation for the problem contained the following equipment/models: Renewable Source (Solar/PV), Storage (Battery), Customer Load Profile, and the Locational Marginal Price (LMP).…”

“…To continue moving forward, it would be beneficial to test equipment under the schemes being developed and the implications as it relates to real world situations. Some examples are contained in the works presented in [5] and [6]. They look at a full Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) from a software perspective.…”

“…Paper [6], on the other hand, began to look at the effects of non-ideal conditions within the BESS. Both [5] and [6] examined the problem from the standpoint that the operations for the solar and battery dispatch were decoupled from each other. The above claim is not true of a real life system, but it is an interesting situation to try to replicate.…”

“…From the battery dispatch schedules calculated in [5] and [6], it should be possible to feed them into the system and implement the specified control. Controllability in this system includes the ability to deliver power to loads from different sources such as renewables, storage, and utility connection.…”

With continued demand for "smart" technologies, implementation of hardware such as batteries and renewable energy sources (e.g. solar panels) has become a huge economic undertaking. In order to better utilize these resources and thus maximize the lifetime of the elements, control schemes looking to both maximize the economic/financial gains while also preventing over usage have become even more important. The work presented examines hardware configurations.The hardware provides a platform to validate previous work while also allowing for learning of new problems. In particular, improvement in the models and testing of the theories from the software can be completed. This ranges from implementing control signals to checking the effects of intermittency in supply. The hardware platform also provides a flexible environment for understanding various issues associated with renewable energy management. Resources for hardware testing are housed within Drexel's Center for Electric Power Engineering (CEPE).
