Enhancing TLS BESS Container Efficiency with Advanced EMS: Features, Standards, and Architecture

Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) have become a cornerstone of modern energy management, offering flexibility and efficiency for renewable energy integration. At TLS, our BESS containers are designed to deliver optimal performance in diverse applications, from grid stabilization to renewable energy storage. Central to achieving this efficiency is the integration of an advanced Energy Management System (EMS).
 
This blog explores how EMS enhances the functionality of TLS BESS containers, focusing on its core features, compliance with standards, and scalable architecture.
 
The Role of EMS in TLS BESS Containers
An Energy Management System serves as the brain of a BESS, orchestrating operations across various subsystems. For TLS BESS containers, the EMS enables seamless communication between Power Conversion Systems (PCS), Battery Management Systems (BMS), and auxiliary systems like cooling, fire safety, and environmental controls.
 
Key EMS functions in TLS BESS containers include:

• SOC Balancing: Ensures balanced State of Charge across all battery modules, enhancing safety and extending battery life.
• Peak Shaving and Valley Filling: Optimizes charging and discharging cycles to manage power demand efficiently.
• AGC and AVC Response: Supports grid stability by responding to Automatic Generation Control and Automatic Voltage Control signals.
• Real-Time Monitoring and Control: Provides continuous oversight of the BESS, offering operational modes like frequency control, local voltage regulation, and manual adjustments.

 
Compliance with EMS Development Standards
TLS BESS containers integrate EMS solutions built to meet stringent international and domestic standards. Key considerations include:

• Operating Systems: Compatibility with both international and localized systems ensures global applicability.
• Database Management: Utilizes relational and real-time databases to handle extensive data requirements.
• Communication Protocols: Adheres to IEC61850 and IEC60870-5-104 standards for reliable system communication.
• Data Model Design: Follows IEC61970CIM standards for efficiency and consistency.
• User Interface: Employs advanced 3D graphics for an intuitive and user-friendly interface.

 
Open and Scalable EMS Architecture for TLS BESS Containers
To meet the evolving needs of energy storage, TLS adopts an open and scalable EMS architecture:

• Scalability: Hardware and software are designed for incremental upgrades without operational disruptions.
• Standard Interfaces: Unified interfaces allow seamless integration with third-party tools for system expansion.
• Development Flexibility: Open access to algorithms, historical data, and real-time databases ensures adaptability.

 
Three-Tier EMS Architecture in TLS BESS Containers
TLS BESS containers utilize a robust three-tier EMS architecture:
1. Centralized Control Center Layer
Employing IoT, cloud computing, and AI, this layer manages distributed energy storage systems. It oversees data collection, predictive maintenance, and operational efficiency.

2. Energy Storage Station Monitoring Layer
This layer combines EMS and BMS platforms:

• EMS: Controls the entire BESS operation and communicates with the grid dispatch center.
• BMS: Focuses on real-time battery monitoring, fault diagnostics, and performance optimization.

3. Basic Storage Unit Layer
This foundational layer consists of:

• Edge Servers: Enable real-time data processing and analysis.
• Communication Hubs: Facilitate seamless data exchange.
• Environmental Controls: Manage temperature, fire safety, and other critical conditions.
