- Shall the 'REPCAU1' details appear in PSSE Renewable Machine tab? After running the Python script or loading the dynamic data file, I have not found it?
JC: No, it doesn't.
- In your model (One BESS and one Classic Generator at infinite bus), what is the source for the battery storage? The classic generator?
JC: Yes, the classic generator would be the source for recharging the battery.
- In my model, I am trying to replace the Synchronous generators by PV generators at a particular bus. (Bus 201)
Initially, for the generator, Pgen= 3375 MW and Mbase= 4000MVA. (My PSSE base MVA is 100).
Then I changed the Pgen and Mbase of that generator to Pgen= 2000 MW and Mbase= 2000 MVA
and added a PV generator at that bus with Pgen= 1375 MW and Mbase= 2000 MVA.
Now, how I would add the BESS to this bus?
Just changing the Bus number and machine ID would work? -->JC: Yes.
How to determine the battery storage capacity and Pgen, MVA etc. ?
JC: Read the EPRI manuals. "SOCini – this is the initial state of charge on the battery and is a user entered value. It should be in per unit; 1 per unit means fully charged and 0 per unit means fully discharged."
- My ultimate aim is to introduce Renewable generators to the system by replacing the traditional synchronous generators and see the effect on frequency change and system stability.
JC: Set SOCini to 1, adjust SOCmax & SOC min accordingly
- For now, I am adding a Bus fault at another bus and removing it after a certain time. I have used Exciter and PSS as control mechanism. The system is recovering from the fault to it's initial state (zero level) after a certain time when the overall generation at bus 201 is equal to 3375 MW. But if I change this generation for example 3200 MW or 3400 MW, then the system is not storing back to it's initial condition after the fault. It's either going downwards or upwards slightly.
JC: perform a non-disturbance run first for every dispatch. If you get flat lines for the monitored variables, then perform the fault cases else check the log file for suspect condition warnings.
As I am unable to attach any file yet because of shortage of Karma points, I am unable to attach files or images. So I have posted my whole DYR file below. Your kind cooperation will be highly appreciated.

I have modeled ESSs with the REGCAU1, REECCU1, and REPCAU1 models... what "results" are you trying to obtain? Specifically what in the dynamics data is causing problems? It is not likely that someone will just place all data online. You need to ask a specific question that is troubling you.
I want to see the effect of using BESS on systems, especially on systems with dominant renewable energy variables. Effect of the intermittency from variable renewable energy will greatly effect the frequency stability on the system. Can BESS be a solution to this problem? Thanks
