000148262 5203_ $$aThis study introduces a novel method for optimising the size and control strategy of grid-connected, utility-scale photovoltaic (PV) systems with battery storage aimed at energy arbitrage and frequency containment reserve (FCR) services. By applying genetic algorithms (GA), the optimal configurations of PV generators, inverters/chargers, and batteries were determined, focusing on maximising the net present value (NPV). Both DC- and AC-coupled systems were explored. The performance of each configuration was simulated over a 25-year lifespan, considering varying pricing, solar resources, battery ageing, and PV degradation. Constraints included investment costs, capacity factors, and land use. A case study conducted in Wiesenthal, Germany, was followed by sensitivity analyses, revealing that a 75% reduction in battery costs is needed to make AC-coupled PV-plus-battery systems as profitable as PV-only systems. Further analysis shows that changes in electricity and FCR pricing as well as limits on FCR charging can significantly impact NPV. The study confirms that integrating arbitrage and FCR services can optimize system profitability.
