Lead-acid (LA) batteries. LA batteries are the most popular and oldest electrochemical energy storage device (invented in 1859). It is made up of two electrodes (a metallic sponge lead anode and a lead dioxide as a cathode, as shown in Fig. 34) immersed in an electrolyte made up of 37% sulphuric acid and 63% water.
This chapter introduces the control and application of ESSs in microgrid systems. The characteristics of energy storage techniques, power electronic interfaces, and battery management systems are introduced. A comprehensive review of ESSs in both islanded microgrids and grid-connected microgrids has been conducted.
The demand of electric energy is increasing globally, and the fact remains that the major share of this energy is still being produced from the traditional generation technologies. However, the recent trends, for obvious reasons of environmental concerns, are indicating a paradigm shift towards distributed generation (DG) incorporating renewable energy
