where the first and second terms are, respectively, the daily
fixed and variable operations/maintenance (O&M) cost of ESS.
The third term is the generation cost, and the last term penalizes

load curtailment lmtd
by a high VOLL, denoted by VmL .
This formulation considers the expected operating cost over
all wind power realizations in each day. In order to account for
various load and wind power profiles in a long run, the objective
is to minimize the average daily operating cost for some representative days, expressed by (17), where the objective value is

Fig. 3. Storage state of charge under different wind power realizations for a
winter weekday, when the ESS budget of investment is 80 million dollars.
Fig. 4. Expected hourly operating cost for a winter weekday, when the ESS
budget of investment is 80 million dollars.
As a result, before ESS is added to the test system, the average daily operating cost is found to be 1946105.69$, and load
curtailment may occur at bus 15 when the wind power generation is much lower than predicted. After the installation of
ESS, there is no load curtailment in all selected scenarios. Due
to load-shifting capability of ESS, the average daily operating
cost drops to 1906397.89$, much lower than the case without
ESS. The reduction of operating expenses can be better demonstrated in Fig. 4, which shows the expected hourly operating
cost over all nine scenarios for the same winter weekday. It is
observed that in the first 7 h, when the demand is low, the operating cost of the case with ESS is higher than the case without
ESS, suggesting that extra power is generated to charge the storage unit. The operating cost increases greatly during peak hours
between 9 A . M . and 21 P. M. For the ESS case, instead of relying on expensive peaking power generators, the energy stored in
previous hours can be used to supply the demand, so the operating cost during this period is much lower than the case without
ESS. If the budget of ESS investment is increased to promote
