It has been proven that battery storage units, with their quick development in the past few years, will reduce the impact of the increasing demand for electricity, which will be caused primarily by transport electrification and heating, and the production of solar power plants. In this thesis the more important characteristics of battery storage units, such as capacity, power output and shelf life are presented. Also described are other characteristics and the basic structure of battery systems. Presentation of the lithium-ion, lead-acid, vanadium, and sodium-ion battery storage units follows. Their structure, functioning, as well as the advantages and disadvantages of using them are documented in detail.
The second part of the thesis is dedicated to the presentation of simulation environment as well as the battery saving units and solar power plants used. Also described is the algorithm based on reducing the burden on the distribution system and not on the increase of energy self-reliance. Presented results of the simulations show the use of a battery storage unit within a distribution system in the winter and summer period. It has been proven that the burden on the transformer can be reduced and voltage height in the system’s busbar can be limited by its presence.
