Abstract
Nowadays the electric power system is facing new challenges related to the integration of renewable sources, more and more frequently combined with energy storage systems. The use of these technologies is very promising, although it requires sophisticated control architectures in order to successfully balance the intermittence and unpredictability of renewables, and provide the power grid with new services. The presence of a storage state estimator is absolutely required to correctly identify the storage performance and present conditions, in terms of stored energy, aging or possible failures; this is crucial to assess the real exploitability of the battery, both during its first or second life application. This paper focuses in particular on aging mechanisms, describing and comparing three possible models and their deployment procedures. Flexibility of implementation, accuracy in aging determination, and ease of use of each technique have been deeply analysed and compared.
