bslib 0.7

A library for simulating PV battery storage systems.

bslib - battery storage library

Repository with code to

• build a database with relevant data from PerMod database (HTW Berlin) and "Stromspeicher-Inspektion"
• simulate ac- and dc-coupled battery storages with regards to electrical power (ac and dc) and state-of-charge as timeseries.

For the simulation, it is possible to calculate outputs of a specific manufacturer + model or alternatively for one of 2 different generic battery storage types.

Documentation

The documentation is still under development.

Usage

Simply install via

• pip install bslib

or clone repository and create environment via:

• git clone https://github.com/FZJ-IEK3-VSA/bslib.git
• conda env create --name bslib --file requirements.txt

Afterwards you're able to create some code with import bslib and use the included functions load_database, get_parameters and simulate.

Battery models and Group IDs

The bslib_database.csv contains the following number of battery storages, sorted by Group ID

[Group ID]: Count	Description
[S_ac]: 2	AC-coupled
[S_dc]: 3	DC-coupled
[INV]: 2	PV Inverter

Database

All resulting database CSV file are under .

The following columns are available for every battery storage of this library

About Us

We are the Institute of Energy and Climate Research - Techno-economic Systems Analysis (IEK-3) belonging to the Forschungszentrum Jülich. Our interdisciplinary department's research is focusing on energy-related process and systems analyses. Data searches and system simulations are used to determine energy and mass balances, as well as to evaluate performance, emissions and costs of energy systems. The results are used for performing comparative assessment studies between the various systems. Our current priorities include the development of energy strategies, in accordance with the German Federal Government’s greenhouse gas reduction targets, by designing new infrastructures for sustainable and secure energy supply chains and by conducting cost analysis studies for integrating new technologies into future energy market frameworks.
