Abstract:
A source ID generation system for an energy storage system of a virtual spinning reserve coupled to power generator set includes at least one ultracapacitor having a low voltage side and a high voltage side. Each of the high voltage side and the low voltage side of the ultracapacitor includes a positive terminal, a negative terminal, a resistor input terminal, and a resistor output terminal. The source ID generation system further includes a resistor that is connected between the resistor input terminal and the resistor output terminal of the ultracapacitor. A source ID of the ultracapacitor is generated based on a voltage between the resistor input terminal and the negative terminal at the low voltage side of the ultracapacitor.
