A Comprehensive Port-Hamiltonian Framework for Passivity-Oriented Stabilization of Battery Energy Storage Systems
Authors
Abstract
The deployment of battery energy storage systems (BESS) plays a crucial role in enhancing the reliability and operational efficiency of renewable energy infrastructures. This study presents a resilient control strategy for BESS, implemented through a bidirectional buck–boost DC–DC converter and formulated within the extended port-Hamiltonian (EpH) framework using passivity-based control (PBC). A nonlinear averaged model is developed and expressed in EpH form, which highlights the system’s inherent passive characteristics. Stability analysis is conducted via Lyapunov theory, resulting in a dynamic controller that ensures global exponential stability. The proposed controller applies a unified control law for both charging and discharging processes, relying on a single proportional damping gain. Target state trajectories are designed to function as dynamic compensators, while robustness against parameter variations is systematically examined. MATLAB simulations validate the controller’s capability to accurately track time-varying current references and maintain precise load compensation. In comparison with conventional proportional–integral and sliding-mode controllers, the PBC-based approach demonstrates improved transient behavior, reduced tracking error, and simplified tuning requirements. Beyond offering a high-performance solution, this work also provides a practical framework for applying pH modeling and PBC theory to modern power electronic systems in renewable energy applications.
