CONTROL OF ENERGY STORAGE SYSTEMS

A method of controlling an operation of energy storage systems of a wind park is provided. The wind park includes a plurality of energy storage systems each of which is associated with a wind turbine comprised by the wind park. Further, each of the plural energy storage systems is configured to be operable to provide electrical energy to an auxiliary system of the associated wind turbine. The method includes obtaining for each of the energy storage systems storage system state information indicating an availability of the energy storage system to store and/or provide electrical energy and operating the plural energy storage systems as a combined energy storage system based on the obtained storage system state information. The method further includes controlling the providing of electrical energy from the combined energy storage system and/or the storing of electrical energy in the combined energy storage system.
