Abstract

This research presents an economic evaluation for determining the ideal size of a battery energy storage system (BESS) for usage in an energy community. It is based on data from UK based communities, the research tries to establish the appropriate size for the BESS to manage the community's power cost and increase PV self-consumption within the community. A research is conducted, taking into account the Economy 7 and Tide Tariff systems, and evaluating the financial benefit if community BESS is used.
