This paper shows the real-time operation model of Energy Management System (EMS) for control of Battery Energy Storage System (BESS). These models are needed to manage uncertain electricity loads, delivery of peak shaving and frequency regulation services and the BESS financial feasibility. The delivery of these services result in economic return for the resource owner and increased grid flexibility. The Energy Management System implemented in this work uses the electricity load and grid frequency data as inputs to generate BESS control commands that deliver the said services. The validation simulation performed on the School of Sinntorp in Sweden returns an annual return on investment of 22% for the BESS and inverter. Implementation of storage systems was shown to expedite the adoption of renewable energy while also solving the challenges that this adoption on scale poses. This active adoption is pivotal in achieving the UN sustainable developmental goals (SDGs) for energy.
