Energy Storage Sizing, Placement and Valuation for Distribution Networks

SAND2023-05682O The Energy Storage Sizing, Placement, and Valuation for Distribution software allows a user to simulate sizing, placement, and operation of one or more storage assets on a distribution grid. Among its features are measuring differences to determine the best combinations, and options for configuring and comparing results. This new simulation capability leverages the Open Distribution System Simulator and the Hierarchical Engine for Large-scale Infrastructure Co-Simulation (HELICS). Sandia National Laboratories is a multimission laboratory managed and operated by National Technology & Engineering Solutions of Sandia, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Honeywell International Inc., for the U.S. Department of Energy’s National Nuclear Security Administration under contract DE-NA0003525.

Modifications to Sandia's MDT and WNTR tools for ERMA

ERMA is leveraging Sandia’s Microgrid Design Toolkit (MDT) [1] and adding significant new features to it. Development of the MDT was primarily funded by the Department of Energy, Office of Electricity Microgrid Program with some significant support coming from the U.S. Marine Corps. The MDT is a software program that runs on a Microsoft Windows PC. It is an amalgamation of several other software capabilities developed at Sandia and subsequently specialized for the purpose of microgrid design. The software capabilities include the Technology Management Optimization (TMO) application for optimal trade-space exploration, the Microgrid Performance and Reliability Model (PRM) for simulation of microgrid operations, and the Microgrid Sizing Capability (MSC) for preliminary sizing studies of distributed energy resources in a microgrid.
