Popis: This letter proposes an enhanced sufficient battery model (ESBM) as well as a binary search algorithm for a sharp inner-approximation of the aggregate flexibility of thermostatically controlled load (TCL) arrays. Compared with the previous work on generalized battery models, this ESBM preserves the merits of being sufficient and mitigates the conservativity. Moreover, unlike the work ignoring the coupling constraints that may also restrict TCLs' aggregate flexibility, our ESBM can readily handle these constraints. Numerical tests validate the merits of using the ESBM and its significance for power system operations.
