Abstract
This paper describes the changes made to a wind park to incorporate a Battery Energy Storage System (BESS). It can be quite costly if the BESS charges when the wind is not producing electricity therefore logic was added which ensured that charging only took place when sufficient wind power was available. The addition of logic to the SCADA system greatly improved the performance of the BESS and eased the financial and operational burden. The process is outlined in this paper.
