Abstract: One of the principal purposes of using energy storage systems (ESS) are peak shaving and load smoothing. In the present study, a novel control algorithm has been developed in order to the optimal use of ESS for peak load shaving. First, by comparing the complex control algorithm of the present study with the control algorithm developed by other researchers (simple control algorithm), the superiority and advantage of the present work become clear. To do this, five different load demand profiles have been considered and the mentioned algorithms have been applied to them. The results show that the implementation of the present study novel algorithm on the load demand profiles number one to five reduces the maximum of the required grid power to 6.477%, 11.81%, 12.60%, 10.25%, and 3.000% of their initial value, respectively. Their variance also reduces their initial value to 14.47%, 14.20%, 28.48%, 39.87%, and 54.96%, respectively. On the other hand, the implementation of the simple control algorithm has reduced the maximum of the required grid power to 0.8542% of its initial value only in the fifth profile. But the variance in the first to fifth profiles is reduced by 9.630%, 5.831%, 14.12%, 21.89%, and 52.00% of their initial value, respectively. In the following, by applying the novel control algorithm on the first sample load demand profile and change of various parameters such as ESS capacity, lower and upper limitation of the grid power, etc. the results are extracted and reported in detail.
