Abstract

NAS (sodium-sulfur) battery systems are promising for mass energy storage. The commercial implementation of NAS battery systems has taken place quickly in Japan. The usage of NAS battery system is important to promote renewable energies. This study analyzes practical operation data of a typical 1000kW NAS battery at Meisei University. A Load forecast is formulated using accumulated load records for the campus. A new load-following control scheme is developed, and its performance is simulated.
