4 FAQs about Battery energy storage system coordination issues for communication base stations

Why do communication base stations use battery energy storage?

Meanwhile, communication base stations often configure battery energy storage as a backup power source to maintain the normal operation of communication equipment [3, 4]. Given the rapid proliferation of 5G base stations in recent years, the significance of communication energy storage has grown exponentially [5, 6].

Why do cellular base stations have backup batteries?

[...] Cellular base stations (BSs) are equipped with backup batteries to obtain the uninterruptible power supply (UPS) and maintain the power supply reliability. While maintaining the reliability, the backup batteries of 5G BSs have some spare capacity over time due to the traffic-sensitive characteristic of 5G BS electricity load.

How much energy does a communication base station use?

In this region, the communication base stations are equipped with energy storage systems with a rated capacity of 48 kWh and a maximum charge/discharge power of 15.84 kW. The self-discharge efficiency is set at 0.99, and the state of charge (SOC) is allowed to range between a maximum of 0.9 and a minimum of 0.1. Figure 3.

Can a virtual battery model be used for a base station?

Grounded in the spatiotemporal traits of chemical energy storage and thermal energy storage, a virtual battery model for base stations is established and the scheduling potential of battery clusters in multiple scenarios is explored.
