The energy storage-friendly reforms of the ancillary service markets in the UK have heightened interest in co-locating battery energy storage systems (BESSs) with renewable power plants for the stacking of multiple revenue streams. This paper develops a modelling framework to simulate the operation of a wind farm (WF) and BESS co-location system where the BESS uses the existing connection point to deliver frequency responses (FRs) to the AC grid while sustaining a minimum energy level to assist the WF in supplying demand blocks in black start (BS) events. The BESS capacity and operating strategies are optimised to maximise the final net present value of the co-location project based on the UK perspective, addressing the trade-off between the BESS costs and the availability performance of FR and BS services. The modelling framework is demonstrated based on a particular transmission-connected WF in the UK combined with a weekly auctioned FR product, i.e., Dynamic Low High (DLH). The optimisation results are compared between the DLH-only provision and the stacking of BS and DLH, and discussed around the techno-economic feasibility of co-location projects, in particular, the BESS energy management and the minimum possible availability prices for DLH and BS services.

Active buildings (ABs) are flexible assets that can exploit the advantages of renewables and energy storage to meet their own needs as well as have a positive impact on the grid. In order to control such systems, several Energy Management Strategies (EMS) have been proposed, with automata being a very promising one. Unfortunately, when several ABs are being combined with various operating restrictions imposed on them, these control methods will require high processing power and can become cumbersome to operate particularly in an adaptive mode. In this paper, we propose for the first time to enhance automata with a new method that utilizes evolution operators. In this work, it is proposed that the evolution operators will be used to express the guard conditions of the automata, and hence allow the transition from one operating state to another, to be more flexible, and versatile. This will allow us to control large and complex energy systems and will maximise their efficiency and lifetime. As a case study, and to clearly show the merits of proposed methodology, a simple AB is considered, and we demonstrate with an example of how easily we can adaptively modify the EMS when this is required.
