Abstract: The penetration level of the renewable energy resources has been expected to increase rapidly in several years as government has strongly encouraged those through various policies such as the RPS (Renewable Portfolio Standards) and feed-in tariffs. Because the performance of power system is sometimes critically constrained by stability characteristics, it is very challenging for system operator to realize such a high penetration of the renewable energy resources in power system. It has been proposed that the large-scale Energy Storage Systems (ESS) can be applied to the power system for stabilizing the power supply and improving the energy efficiency ratio by using the stored electrical power in the period of high demand for electricity. To implement the large capacity and improve the effectiveness of the lithium-ion battery ESS, it has been constructed 4MW/8MWh ESS test-bed and developed the operation technology of ESS. In this paper, a demonstration study scheme on the large-scale Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) is proposed to verify the effectiveness and to estimate the performance of BESS.
