Tom Key, Electric Power Research Institute. Distributed photovoltaic (PV) systems currently make an insignificant contribution to the power balance on all but a few utility distribution systems.
To overcome this issue and maximize fuel savings, distributed energy generation can be established with or without battery storage. Techniques such as Hybrid System Sources Diagram (HSSD) can design these systems by setting the allocation scheme of each source available on each demand and in the battery.
In function of their characteristics, photovoltaic systems are adequate to be used for electrical distributed generation. It is a modular technology which permits installation conforming to demand, space availability and financial resources.
Develop solar energy grid integration systems (see Figure below) that incorporate advanced integrated inverter/controllers, storage, and energy management systems that can support communication protocols used by energy management and utility distribution level systems.
Identify inverter-tied storage systems that will integrate with distributed PV generation to allow intentional islanding (microgrids) and system optimization functions (ancillary services) to increase the economic competitiveness of distributed generation. 3.
This work presents a review of energy storage and redistribution associated with photovoltaic energy, proposing a distributed micro-generation complex connected to the electrical power grid using energy storage systems, with an emphasis placed on the use of NaS batteries.
