This paper presents a new simplified model of a BES-qZSI to represent the converter dynamics with sufficient accuracy while using a less complex model than the detailed model (including the modelling of all switches and switching pulses). It is based on averaged values of the variables, voltage/current sources, and the same control circuit than the detailed model, except for the switching pulses generation. The simplified model enables faster time-domain simulation and is useful for control design and dynamic analysis purposes. Additionally, an energy management system has been developed to govern the power supply to grid under two possible scenarios: 1) System operator command following; or 2) economic dispatch of the stored energy. The results obtained from simulations and experimental hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) setup for different operating conditions of the grid-connected large-scale PV power plant with battery energy storage under study demonstrate the validity of the proposed simplified model to represent the dynamics of the converter and PV power plant for steady-state stability studies, long-term simulations, or large electric power systems. © 2021 The Authors}, organization = {This work was partially supported by the Spain's Ministerio de Ciencia, Innovaci?n y Universidades (MCIU), Agencia Estatal de Investigaci?n (AEI), and Fondo Europeo de Desarrollo Regional (FEDER) Uni?n Europea (UE) (grant number RTI2018-095720-B-C32), by the Federal Center for Technological Education of Minas Gerais, Brazil (process number 23062?010087/2017-51) and by the National Council of Technological and Scientific Development (CNPq-Brazil)}, publisher = {ELSEVIER}, keywords = {PV power Plant}, keywords = {Energy storage system}, keywords = {Quasi-Z-source inverter}, keywords = {Modelling Control}, title = {Simplified model of battery energy-stored quasi-Z-source inverter-based photovoltaic power plant with Twofold energy management system}, doi = {10.1016/j.energy.2021.122563}, author = {De Oliveira-Assis, Lais and Soares-Ramos, Emanuel P.
