What is a mobile energy storage system (mess)?

During emergencies via a shift in the produced energy, mobile energy storage systems (MESSs) can store excess energy on an island, and then use it in another location without sufficient energy supply and at another time , which provides high flexibility for distribution system operators to make disaster recovery decisions .

What is a mobile energy storage system?

A mobile energy storage system is composed of a mobile vehicle, battery system and power conversion system . Relying on its spatial–temporal flexibility, it can be moved to different charging stations to exchange energy with the power system.

Can mobile energy storage systems improve resilience of distribution systems?

According to the motivation in Section 1.1, the mobile energy storage system as an important flexible resource, cooperates with distributed generations, interconnection lines, reactive compensation equipment and repair teams to optimize dispatching to improve the resilience of distribution systems in this paper.

Can mobile energy storage improve power system safety and stability?

This article proposes an integrated approach that combines stationary and vehicle-mounted mobile energy storage to optimize power system safety and stability under the conditions of limiting the total investment in both types of energy storages.

Does a mobile energy storage system meet transportation time requirements?

Moreover, from the simulation results shown in Fig. 6 (h) and (i), the movement of the mobile energy storage system between different charging station nodes meets the transportation time requirements, which verifies the effectiveness of the MESS’s spatial–temporal movement model proposed in this paper.

Is mobile energy storage a spatial–temporal flexibility resource?

The optimal MES dispatch model is shown in Section presents the rolling optimization framework for the MES dispatch strategy. Case studies are performed in Section and conclusions are drawn in Section Mobile energy storage (MES) is a spatial–temporal flexibility resource.
