Energy Modeling of a Lead-Acid Battery within Hybrid Wind/Photovoltaic Systems

Within the scope of full-scale energy modeling of a hybrid wind / photovoltaic system coupled to the network, our focus herein lies in a battery set-up that makes use of the CIEMAT model. The implementation and energy-based analysis of this model are conducted with emphasis on the continuous estimation of battery capacity. A measurement vs. model results comparison is then performed under actual operating conditions.
