Energy Storage Systems in Transmission Expansion Planning
This chapter presents a framework to demonstrate the impacts of energy storage systems (ESSs) on transmission expansion planning (TEP). In order to integrate the ESSs into TEP, a typical test network, i.e., IEEE 24-Bus RTS, is adopted as case study, and TEP is carried out on this network. The TEP is integrated with ESSs and the impacts …
