Thailand Needs More Battery Energy Storage Systems
Thailand may lack the Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) necessary to navigate supply and demand challenges. The 2024 PDP draft included 10,000 MW of BESS, but this may see the country struggle to fulfil carbon neutrality and Net Zero commitments over the coming decades.

Falling battery prices have made PV systems with battery storage more and more economically viable. To optimize the levelized cost of electricity (LCOE) and levelized cost of storage (LCOS), it is important to study in advance the behavior of these installation, in order to size correctly the system. The PVsyst simulation tool
Self Consumption with storage
Your battery pack (160 kWh) is completely undersized. With a PV power of 846 kWp and a max. load of 1048 kWh, it could be charged in 11 minutes, and discharged in 9 minutes. Sorry, PVsyst doesn''t treat this absurd
Solar farm integrated with BESS
In PVsyst we have 3 strategies for Grid-storage. In the Self consumption strategy, the produced electricity from your PV system will firstly supply the user''s need (consumption), secondly charge the BESS and lastly supply energy to the grid. With the Peak shaving strategy doesn''t involve an internal use of the energy and you can define the

The DC bus is connected to the battery pack via a DC-DC converter. This mode requires a bi-directional DC-DC converter, for also ensuring the discharge of the battery to the DC bus. you can still evaluate its performance by defining suitable efficiencies in the PVsyst input and output storage parameters. You should simply check that the

Grid-storage with self-consumption -> charg. and disch. times
"The Charging max. power (10.0 kW) is too high. It corresponds to a battery charging rate of C1.2 (1.2 hours)" or "The discharging max. power (15.0 kW) is too high. It correspond to a battery discharging rate of C0.8 (0.8 hours)"). I just think it would be really helpful to have the information constantly.
Grid systems with storage
Grid-storage systems require specific electronic devices, especially suited inverters, battery chargers, controllers, etc. Defining these devices in PVsyst will be extremely complex, as each manufacturer proposes its own integrated solution.
Optimization of stand-alone and grid-connected hybrid
Four scenarios are identified to select the most suitable solution for a hybrid renewable energy system (HRES) integrating solar photovoltaic (PV), wind turbine generator (WTG), fuel cell (FC), and battery energy storage (Li-Ion), with backup diesel generation or grid connection with the mainland as options.
Storage: Weak grid, islanding mode
When the sun power is sufficient for feeding the user''s needs, the rest is used for charging the battery. If the battery is full the excess will be injected into the grid if this is allowed, otherwise this energy will be lost (i.e. the inverter will operate at reduced energy level). -
Self Consumption with storage
Your battery pack (160 kWh) is completely undersized. With a PV power of 846 kWp and a max. load of 1048 kWh, it could be charged in 11 minutes, and discharged in 9 minutes. Sorry, PVsyst doesn''t treat this absurd situation correctly in the present time.

Aging and Battery degredation
HiIf storage is defined within a project variant, does the aging tool calculate the loss for both the PV module and battery degradation, or just for the modules?If just for the modules, how can I include the effects of battery degradation? For example, do I have to set the SOWCycl and SOWStat and

Thailand''s renewable energy plan boosts battery storage systems
Battery energy storage systems (BESS) are essential for buildings and renewable power generation facilities to ensure uninterrupted electricity supply. Renewable sources like solar and wind power are intermittent, and influenced by weather patterns. BESS mitigates this issue by storing electricity for future use.
Grid-connected PV plant with battery storage and no self
I have a grid-connected PV plant, and I want to integrate a battery storage system. There is no self-consumption involved. The battery should charge using the PV plant''s production during the day, and the stored energy should be discharged to the grid during the night when there is no production.
Storage: Power''s peak shaving
-EBatCh - EBatDis: The battery storage efficiency loss (faradic efficiency, internal resistance, gassing), - CL_Chrg, CL_InvB: The charger and battery inverter''s efficiency losses,-EUnused: There may be some unused energy, either when the battery is full, or if the charging power overcomes the maximum power of the charger.
Grid connected system with battery storage
Is it possible to simulate a grid connected system with battery storage (and possibly a generator (fossil fuel based)) and net metering in PVsyst? Also would it be possible to fix the size of the PV array and the battery and evaluate the economic feasibility of supplying a load that is partly sup
Can I include a battery in a grid-connected system
Remember that the price of the stored energy is very high. It can be evaluated by the price of the battery pack, divided by the total energy stored along the battery lifetime, i.e. Capacity (in kWh) x DOD x Max. nb. of cycles. If you assume a full storage/destorage every day, a battery pack of 1''500 cycles should be replaced every 4 years.

What is grid storage in PVSyst?
Since the version 6.76, PVsyst provides 3 different strategies of Grid-storage: Weak grid recovery, for ensuring an electricity supply when the grid is falling. Each of these strategies have different constraints: In all these strategies, the battery charging will begin as soon as PV energy is over the user's needs.
Why is battery storage a problem in Thailand?
This is partly due to a lack of clarity on how battery storage fits into existing electricity infrastructure. In 2022, the Thai government approved 24 BESS projects, all of which were located alongside solar operations. Their total combined storage capacity was 994 MW.
Does PVSyst treat the mode of charging a battery from the grid?
No, PVsyst doesn't treat the mode of charging the battery from the grid. This doesn't make much sense: what would be the strategy? When activating the charging ? Why? 1- This is the battery that I'm using the simulations. For this case, I'm only using one battery, so I should have a maximum capacity of around 200 kWh at 100% DOC.
