Abstract:
As an essential part of renewable energy, the solar photovoltaic technic grows rapidly with two main types: off-grid and grid-connected systems. This paper focuses on grid-connected solar photovoltaic power plants and introduces the main physical principles of solar photovoltaics. Typical components of solar photovoltaic power plants are also presented, along with their functions. The extraordinary environmental impact and the relatively low and decreasing cost of grid-connected solar photovoltaics reflect its excellent development potential. Compared with other energy, grid-connected solar photovoltaics provides an alternative to conventional fossil fuel generation. With the improvement of silicon purification technology and the working efficiency of solar batteries, the scale of grid-connected solar photovoltaics power plants will be further expanded.

Abstract:
Abstract The development of distributed power in Hunan Province is mainly photovoltaic, with an average annual growth rate of 16.4% in the past five years. By the end of October 2022, Hunan’s distributed photovoltaic installed capacity is 3.06 million kilowatts, accounting for 54.6% of the total photovoltaic installed capacity, which exceeds the centralized photovoltaic installed capacity. Due to the rapid large-scale development of distributed photovoltaics, it is common that the actual operation scale exceeds the contemporaneous planning. In addition, Hunan distributed photovoltaic access is concentrated in northern and southern Hunan, while in southern Hunan, due to a large number of local clean energy, a large number of distributed photovoltaic access will increase the output of terminal power supply, which can seriously cause the grid power flow to reverse. This paper takes the power grid topology in southern Hunan as an example of carrying out the bearing capacity assessment of regional distributed photovoltaic access to the power grid. This method guides the rational layout of distributed photovoltaics and stably ensures the operation of the Hunan power grid.

Abstract:
As more renewable energy sources are connected to the electrical grid, it has become important that these sources participate in providing system support. It has become needful for grid-connected solar photovoltaics to participate in support functions like frequency support. However, photovoltaic systems need to implement a maximum power tracking algorithm to operate at maximum power and a method for de-loading photovoltaic systems is necessary for participation in frequency support. Some conventional maximum power tracking techniques are implemented in real time and will not adjust their output fast enough to provide system support while other may respond fast but are not very efficient in tracking the maximum power point of a photovoltaic system. This paper presents an offline method to estimate the maximum power voltage and current based on the characteristics of the photovoltaics module available in the datasheet and using the estimated values to operate the photovoltaics at maximum power. The performance of this technique is compared to the conventional technique. This paper also describes how the photovoltaic system can be de-loaded.

Abstract:
Abstract Photovoltaics have the advantages of being clean and renewable and have gained a wide range of applications. It is promising to use photovoltaic energy for the power supply of buildings, as the building sector accounts for a large portion of global energy consumption with a constantly increasing trend. However, photovoltaics are greatly affected by time and environment, and it is usually combined with batteries to form a photovoltaic–battery energy storage system to meet the load demand. This paper aims to analyze and compare energy management strategies of an on-grid solar photovoltaic–battery system for a real building project in a typical May and October region, but unlike other studies, the strategies used in this paper are very simple and easy to implement. It can also realize photovoltaic, battery and grid to meet the load power demand. Two strategies are used in this paper. Strategy 1 is to maximize the utilization of the energy generated by photovoltaics: while the energy generated by photovoltaics cannot meet the load demand, the battery will provide energy, and while the battery cannot meet the load demand, the grid will provide energy. The photovoltaic energy is given priority to the battery under the premise of meeting the load demand. Strategy 2 is to use the time-of-use electricity price, and the battery obtains cheap electricity at night to meet the load of the high electricity price the next day. The feasibility of the strategy used is demonstrated by actual data of buildings and photovoltaic–battery energy storage systems. This study can provide theoretical references for the energy management and system operation to facility managers and building occupants.

Abstract:
Agricultural Photovoltaic Systems are a key technology to achieve sustainable development goals by reducing competition between land for food and electricity. In addition, Agricultural Photovoltaic Systems are at the heart of the link between power generation, crop production and irrigation water conservation. The main ecophysiological constraint on crop production under photovoltaics is the reduction of light. It is difficult to recommend shade tolerance for some plant varieties due to insufficient information on shading conditions for most plants. The use of shading panels (photovoltaic panels) requires more crop-specific research to determine the optimal percentage of panels and their placement that will not reduce agricultural yields. Crop yield variation versus field shading and availability to maximize the system require extensive research. This study aims to develop a standard procedure for designing an agricultural grid-connected photovoltaic power generation system for solar power generation in an agricultural area in Bahteem, Egypt. The technical and annual performance of the grid-connected PV system was simulated using PV Syst software. The paper started with a pre-feasibility study of a grid-connected photovoltaic system using PV Syst. Software with an extensive database of meteorological data, including global daily horizontal solar irradiance, and a database of various renewable energy system components from different manufacturers. In this work, a comprehensive literature review of agricultural solar photovoltaic systems is conducted, with a particular focus on grid-connected systems, followed by a design procedure for grid-connected solar photovoltaic systems. The planned photovoltaic system will generate a total of 400 KWp of electricity. This generated electricity can drive down electricity prices by exporting excess electricity to the national grid. In addition, solar power systems are fuel-efficient and have a low environmental impact.

Abstract:
With the increase of photovoltaic penetration rate, the fluctuation of photovoltaic power generation affects the reliability of ship power grids. Marine PV grid-connected systems with high penetration rates should generally have a low voltage ride-through capability. In the present paper, a strategy in which super capacitors are applied for energy storage in a marine photovoltaic grid-connected system is proposed, and an inverter adopts independent decoupling control of active and reactive currents to improve the LVRT capability of photovoltaic grid-connected systems. In addition, a comprehensive control strategy is also designed to control the supercapacitor, to regulate the active power through the control method of the voltage outer loop and the current inner loop, in order to maintain the DC bus voltage stability. At the same time, the inverter can increase the reactive power output to support the grid voltage. The advantage of this system is in smoothing the power imbalance in a short time, enhancing the low voltage ride-through capability of the photovoltaic grid-connected system, improving the power quality, and ensuring the safety and stability of the ship’s power grid. MATLAB/Simulink were employed to establish a ro-ro ship super capacitor–marine photovoltaic grid-connected power system model and to carry out simulation experiments by setting the grid voltage drop. The results show that when the grid voltage drops, the inverter adjusts the distribution of active and reactive power. The power factor drops from 1 to 0.77, and the effective value of the voltage drop increases from 150 V to 156 V, which proves that this strategy effectively reduces the depth of the grid voltage drop and improves the low voltage ride-through capability of the photovoltaic grid-connected system.

Abstract:
Distributed photovoltaic power generation will not only help to achieve the strategic targets of peaking carbon emissions and carbon neutrality but also cause a series of impacts on the power grid at the same time. Forecasting the long-term development of regionally distributed photovoltaics can provide a reference for power grid planning and stable operation. In this paper, considering the effect of factors such as subsidies and countywide promotion policy of photovoltaics, a forecasting model for the development tendency of regionally distributed photovoltaics based on system dynamics is established. Then, taking Beijing as an example, an empirical analysis is carried out, and the effect of the proportion of self-consumption and the time when the subsidy is adjusted on distributed photovoltaic penetration is explored through sensitivity analysis. The simulation results show that the installed capacity achieved by the countywide promotion policy will become the main source of the installed capacity growth of distributed photovoltaics in Beijing after 2024. To continuously boost distributed photovoltaic penetration, relevant policymakers should consider the appropriate time when the subsidy is adjusted according to the installation cost of photovoltaic systems.

Abstract:
The main objective of this work is to develop a methodology for analyzing the quality of the voltage level in the distribution power grid to identify and reduce the violations of voltage limits through the proposition of optimal points for the allocation of photovoltaic distributed generation. The methodology uses the geographic location of the power grid and its consumers to perform the grouping and classification in spatial grids of 100 × 100 m using the average annual consumption profile. The generated profiles, including the grid information, are sent to the photovoltaic distributed generation allocation algorithm, which, using an optimization process, identifies the geographic location, the required installed capacity, and the minimum number of photovoltaic generation units that must be inserted to minimize the violations of voltage limits, respecting the necessary restrictions. The entire proposal is applied in a real feeder with thousands of bars, whose model is validated with measurements carried out in the field. Different violations of voltage limits scenarios are used to validate the methodology, obtaining grids with better voltage quality after the optimized allocation of photovoltaic distributed generation. The proposal presents itself as a new tool in the work of adapting the voltage of the distribution power grid using photovoltaic distributed generation.

Abstract:
This thesis presents investigations into issues of power quality and reliability of grid connected inverters and proposes improved topological and control solutions to improve performance and cost effectiveness of these systems. Synchronisation of inverters to the grid can be problematic in its operational reliability. Of all grid synchronisation techniques phase locked loop based method offers a simple, robust and flexible solution. However the conventional PLL approach is inherently difficult to tune, due to the influence of its parameters on loop dynamics, filtering properties and output waveform spectral purity. The improved PLL proposed in the thesis, relieves the tuning task by decoupling the effect of its loop parameters from performance characteristics. Inverter power quality issues are addressed beginning from sources of harmonic distortion, classified as intrinsic and extrinsic. A potential intrinsic source is a look-up table generated reference sinusoid accessed in non-uniform increments resulting in harmonic, inter-harmonic or subharmonic distortion. The effect is studied in detail with analytical derivations and experimental results. On the other hand, extrinsic distortions are mainly caused by the distorted grid voltage. The effect of inductor current feedback, output current feedback and capacitor current feedforward on harmonic impedance is studied. The combination of inductor current feedback and capacitor current feedforward demonstrates good disturbance rejection and damped load transient performance on a low power grid connected inverter. It is shown that by carefully selecting the feedforward coefficient, the structure of the control system could be varied between the feedback and feedforward schemes. Theoretical concepts are validated on a purpose built 50OW 3-level grid connected inverter controlled through a generalised controller board based on TMS320C31 DSP. Multi-level inverters are presented as a favourable topological alternative to H-bridge grid connected inverters at medium and high power levels. The effect of number of levels, topology and switching strategy on switching losses, spectral performance and cost is analysed. Simulation results reveal that Boolean manipulation of PWM signals can be used to re-distribute harmonic energy for common mode cancellation, resulting in low switching harmonic amplitudes. Such a scheme - Carrier anti-phase sine (CAS) PWM is proposed and used in the prototype 3-level inverter.

SummaryThis master?s thesis is focused on the design of grid connected PV power stage inverter. This inverter will be used for solar power application in the renewable energy laboratory at NTNU. The designed power stage inverter is a single phased 1kW, 230 V at the output. The DC/AC power stage converter is able to convert the minimum available voltage at the PV array of about 100V DC. The grid connected PV power stage inverter is designed in Multism and implemented in NI labView for simulation and analysis of output voltage and current.To achieve this goal, several literatures will be studied related to the work in this thesis. The choice of the best circuitry topology must be made and important parameters for the power stage inverter should be calculated/estimated. The control strategy for the power stage inverter shall be proposed and the expected desired output shall be analyzed in LabView and compared to the standard one (Grid output).Problem DescriptionAt NTNU a laboratory for renewable energy is under construction. This lab emulates several different renewable energy sources connected together. The power from the PV panels mounted outside on the building will be available for connection in the laboratory. A survey of control structures for the inverter when used as a grid connected PV inverter will be made. Based on this a suitable control will be chosen, which will include methods for grid synchronization, maximum power utilization, anti-islanding and current/voltage control. System models must be developed, which shall form a basis for controller parameter estimation. In the project the instrumentation system for collection of operation information of the PV plant into a database will be designed based on EtherCAT network. The purpose of this database is to collect and archive performance, reliability and operating cost data for this PV based distributed power systems.This thesis focused on the design of the single phase converter power stage. Important parameters for the inverter stage will be proposed. The converter is designed in Multism and implemented in LabView for the control of the output and user interface. The remaining task to accomplish the whole NTNU project in this laboratory will be the proposal of the control system.

Abstract:
The installed base of photovoltaic power plants in the United States has roughly doubled every 1 to 2 years between 2008 and 2015. The primary economic drivers of this are government mandates for renewable power, falling prices for all PV system components, 3rd party ownership models, and a generous tariff scheme known as net-metering. Other drivers include a desire for decreasing the environmental impact of electricity generation and a desire for some degree of independence from the local electric utility. The result is that in coming years, PV power will move from being a minor niche to a mainstream source of energy. As additional PV power comes online this will create challenges for the electric grid operators. We examine some problems related to large scale adoption of PV power in the United States. We do this by first discussing questions of reliability and efficiency at the PV system level. We measure the output of a fleet of small PV systems installed at Tucson Electric Power, and we characterize the degradation of those PV systems over several years. We develop methods to predict energy output from PV systems and quantify the impact of negatives such as partial shading, inverter inefficiency and malfunction of bypass diodes. Later we characterize the variability from large PV systems, including fleets of geographically diverse utility scale power plants. We also consider the power and energy requirements needed to smooth those systems, both from the perspective of an individual system and as a fleet. Finally we report on experiments from a utility scale PV plus battery hybrid system deployed near Tucson, Arizona where we characterize the ability of this system to produce smoothly ramping power as well as production of ancillary energy services such as frequency response.

Abstract:
This thesis applies the concept of a virtual-synchronous-machine- (VSM-) based control to a conventional 250-kW utility-scale photovoltaic (PV) inverter. VSM is a recently-developed control scheme which offers an alternative grid-synchronization method to the conventional grid-tracking control scheme, which is based on the dq phase-locked-loop- (PLL-) oriented vector control. Synchronous machines inherently synchronize to the grid and largely partake in the stabilization of the grid frequency during power system dynamics. The purpose of this thesis is primarily to present the design of a grid-forming control scheme based on the VSM and the derivation of the terminal dq-frame ac impedance of the small-signal model of the inverter and control scheme. This design is also compared to the design of the conventional grid-tracking control structure, both from a loop design and terminal dq-frame ac impedance standpoint. Due to the inherent lax power-balance synchronization, the grid-forming control scheme results in 1 to 2 decades' lower frequency range of negative incremental input impedance in the diagonal elements, which is a favorable condition for stability. Additionally, the stability of the grid-forming control scheme is compared to the conventional grid-tracking control using the generalized Nyquist criterion (GNC) for stability under three modes of operation of active and reactive power injection. It is found that the connection is stable for both control schemes under unity power factor and fixed reactive power modes; however, the grid-forming control is able to inject twice the amount of active power under the voltage regulation mode when compared to the grid-tracking control.
Master of Science
Concerns about the current and future state of the environment has prompted government and non-profit agencies to enact regulatory legislation on fossil fuel emissions. In 2017, electricity generation comprised 28% of total U.S. greenhouse gas emissions with 68% of this generation being due to coal combustion sources. As a result, utilities have retired a number of coal power plants and have employed alternative means of power generation, specifically renewable energy sources (RES). Most RES operate as variable-frequency ac sources (wind) or dc sources (solar) and are interfaced with the power grid through ac-dc-ac or dc-ac converters, respectively, which are power-electronic devices used to control the injection of power to the grid. Conventional converters synchronize with the grid by tracking the phase of the voltage at the point of common coupling (PCC) through a phase-locked loop (PLL). While power system dynamics significantly affect the performance of a PLL, and, subsequently, inverters' operation, the initial frequency regulation during grid events is attributed to the system's inherent inertia due to the multitude of synchronous machines (SM). However, with the steady increase of RES penetration, even while retaining the number of SM units, the net inertia in the system will decrease, thus resulting in prolonged responses in frequency regulation to the aforementioned dynamics. This thesis investigates the control of variable-frequency sources as conventional synchronous machines and provides a detailed design procedure of this control structure for photovoltaic (PV) inverter applications. Additionally, the stability of the connection of the inverter to the grid is analyzed using innovative stability analysis techniques which treat the inverter and control as a black box. In this manner, the inner-workings of the inverter need not be known, especially since it is proprietary information of the manufacturer, and the operator can measure the output response of the device to some input signal. In this work, it is found that the connection between the inverter and grid is stable with this new control scheme and comparable to conventional control structures. Additionally, the control based on synchronous machine characteristics shows improved stability for voltage and frequency regulation, which is key to maintaining a stable grid.

Abstract:
Multilevel inverters offer many well-known advantages for use in high-voltage and high-power applications, but they are also well suited for low-power applications. A single phase inverter is developed in this paper to deliver power from a residential-scale system of Photovoltaic panels to the utility grid. The single-stage inverter implements a novel control technique for the reversing voltage topology to produce a stepped output waveform. This approach increases the granularity of control over the PV systems, modularizing key components of the inverter and allowing the inverter to extract the maximum power from the systems. The adaptive controller minimizes harmonic distortion in its output and controls the level of reactive power injected to the grid. A computer model of the controller is designed and tested in the MATLAB program Simulink to assess the performance of the controller. To validate the results, the performance of the proposed inverter is compared to that of a comparable voltage-sourced inverter.

Abstract:
Abstract The photovoltaic industry is experiencing rapid growth. Industry analysts project that photovoltaic sales will increase from their current $1.5 billion level to over $27 billion by 2020, representing an average growth rate of 25% [1]. To date, the vast majority of sales have been for navigational signals, call boxes, telecommunication centers, consumer products, off-grid electrification projects, and small grid-interactive residential rooftop applications. Building integrated photovoltaics, the integration of photovoltaic cells into one of more of the exterior surfaces of the building envelope, represents a small but growing photovoltaic application. In order for building owners, designers, and architects to make informed economic decisions regarding the use of building integrated photovoltaics, accurate predictive tools and performance data are needed. A building integrated photovoltaic test bed has been constructed at the National Institute of Standards and Technology to provide the performance data needed for model validation. The facility incorporates four identical pairs of building integrated photovoltaic panels constructed using single-crystalline, polycrystalline, silicon film, and amorphous silicon photovoltaic cells. One panel of each identical pair is installed with thermal insulation attached to its rear surface. The second paired panel is installed without thermal insulation. This experimental configuration yields results that quantify the effect of elevated cell temperature on the panels’ performance for different cell technologies. This paper presents the first set of experimental results from this facility. Comparisons are made between the electrical performance of the insulated and non-insulated panels for each of the four cell technologies. The monthly and overall conversion efficiencies for each cell technology are presented and the seasonal performance variations discussed. Daily efficiencies are presented for a selected month. Finally, hourly plots of the power output and panel temperatures are presented and discussed for the single-crystalline and amorphous silicon panels.

Abstract:
Switzerland’s energy grids are reliable and stable – but they are facing new challenges. These include the fact that the new renewable energy sources, namely photovoltaic systems and wind farms, only produce electricity on an irregular basis. Greater flexibility is therefore required in the energy grid: with new storage solutions for electricity and heat on the supply side and automated load management on the demand side. The potential synergies between the various energy sources must also be exploited.
