Abstract :
The electricity supply of West Berlin is operated by the Berliner Kraft- und Licht (BEWAG) and has been running as an insular system since 1952. In order to reduce the problems of this the utility company is considering using large-scale storage batteries in order to reduce cost for load frequency control and instantaneous reserve. The author looks at the design and some significant considerations when integrating a battery with an electric system
