ZBFB is at a pre-commercial stage. Currently, installation costs are higher than
other types of battery. IRENA forecasts that by 2030, ZBFB costs are expected to
decrease to one third of current costs.

Project Summary:
• Deployment, demonstration, and validation of a ZBFB at the VVWRA
Facility;
• Objective is to demonstrate the potential for minimizing (preventing) the
minimum import violations at the VVWRA facility by optimizing the utilization
of the ZBFB;
• System is composed of two on-site 800 kW biogas generators, 200 kW/
1 MWh ZBFB, SCADA system, and controller;
• System optimization is achieved by a heuristic control framework;
• Minimize the operational power buffer;
• Increase on-site renewable energy; and,
• Reduce the amount of water (in treatment) being discarded.

• Energy management goals are changed from reducing peak demand by
discharging battery to maintaining net load above 80 kW by charging
battery.
• The BESS acts as the net load regulator to trigger the onsite generators to
produce more/less power.
• The frequency (less than 2 second) to operate the battery is much faster
than the previous battery control methods.
The BESS will smooth the facility load and maintain a load margin above the
minimum import threshold.

Reducing the Occurrence of Minimum Import
Violations
Under certain conditions the simulation is unable to prevent the
minimum import violation. There are two main reasons :
1) The facility load drops sharply
2) The battery is engaged in a “refresh cycle”
![Page 20: 2018 UC Solar Research Symposiumucsolar.ucmerced.edu/sites/cast.ucmerced.edu/files... · University of California, Riverside Southern California Research Initiative for Solar Energy](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042414/5f2e1717c81eb9054f73c4ab/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)

Decreasing Occurrence of Minimum Import
Violation
To improve the prevention of minimum import
violations, optimization is needed to:
1. Determine what is the most appropriate
steady range
2. Determine what is the most optimal
threshold value

Conclusions
• New technologies have a lot of potential, but demonstration and validation is
needed for de-risking investment and adoption;
• Operational constraints are critical for properly managing and utilizing new
technologies;
• Performing use case studies and application-based projects will validate the
limitations and constraints of new technologies for validating the applicability
of new technologies; and,
