This paper assesses the economic sides of a grid-connected PV system based on a validated model and the feed in tariff regulation in Jordan. The economic model was built based on a calibrated design model at previous work for authors. An economic analysis is conducted based on a proposed PV plant to cover the Jordan University needs of electricity, considering the Engineering Procurement Construction...
Photovoltaic (PV) energy has a fast growing annual rate and is quickly becoming an important part of the energy balance in most regions and power systems. This paper aims to study the effects of connecting a PV system to the grid through simulation of the system in RSCSD software in real time on the Real Time Digital Simulator (RTDS). Effect of variation of power factor of loads, variation of PV penetration,...
This paper presents an active-clamp flyback microinverter for grid connected photovoltaic (PV) ac module system. The active-clamp circuit achieves the soft switching by allowing a negative current that discharges the output capacitor of the primary switch and zero voltage switching (ZVS) turn on is achieved. The active-clamp switch is also operated in ZVS. Therefore the switching losses of the high...
This paper presents a review on grid Integration and power quality issues associated with the integration of renewable energy systems in to grid and Role of power electronic devices and Flexible AC Transmission Systems related to these Issues. In this paper, recent trends in power electronics for the integration of wind and photovoltaic (PV) power generators are presented. Discussions about common...
This paper emphasises the modelling and control of a voltage source converter (VSC) for three phase grid connected PV system. The transfer functions for inner current control and outer DC link voltage control for VSC are derived. The controllers for VSC are designed based on PI and K factor control methods and the performance of VSC using both the methods are presented with the simulations performed...
Smart grid concept promises a reliable and efficient supply of electricity. It recognizes the growing importance of Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs). By incorporating ICT in the existing electrical network, it will transform into the smart or intelligent grid. A vivid study of components of the smart grid i.e. smart meter, TOD meter, ICT, Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI) is...
The recent development in the Photovoltaic system (PV) is because of the concern over the high demand in electricity and it directly produces electric power from the solar energy without any environmental hazards. The gird connected PV system will lose its stability when grid impedance is more. This paper compares the conventional grid connected single phase three level inverter topology with five...
Every day there is a power cut from the Grid around 3 to 4 hours and this force to use Diesel generators in ISM Dhanbad. ISM Dhanbad is located in Jharkhand state in India and around 7000 students and faculties are in ISM premises. Around 1.4Tonne/day food and kitchen waste generates in ISM campus and 4.9 kwh/m2/d annual average solar radiation is available in Dhanbad. In this paper optimal design...
Increased concern about global warming coupled with the escalating demand of energy has driven the conventional power system to be more reliable one by integrating Renewable Energies (RE) in to grid. Over the recent years, integration of solar PV forming a grid-connected PV is considered as one of the most promising technologies to the developed countries like Australia to meet the growing demand...
One of the main reasons attributed to the slow uptake of grid-connected residential PV (photovoltaic) systems, is the lack of information about the near-term economic benefits which are as important as long-term viability for residential customers. This paper presents a comparative assessment of the near-term economic benefits of grid-connected residential PV systems. Case studies from the UK and...
This paper proposes a nonlinear control strategy for a hybrid PV-battery system insuring frequency and voltage support of the power system. The hybrid system includes a PV panel and battery connected to three-phase DC-AC inverter via DC-DC boost converter and bidirectional DC-DC boost converter. A synchronous generator represents the power grid. The voltage regulators control DC-DC boost converter...
This paper presents a methodology for the control of active and reactive power feeding to the utility and the load through a single phase grid connected photovoltaic power plant. A two stage control strategy has been used to provide an effective and simplified control to extract maximum power from the PV array as well as to control the reactive power. This paper focuses on simplifying the control...
A comparative review is presented for integrated PEM Fuel Cell and Photovoltaic generating system to single phase utility grid. Different techniques of common coupling for integration have been investigated for this system. For both common AC bus and Common DC bus integration schemes, two different current control techniques have been investigated. The simulation result shows that common DC bus integration...
This analysis compares market penetration of grid-connected PV in the U.S. in the context of a fully competitive market. The MARKAL-MACRO integrated energy-environmental-economic model was used to simulate the US energy capacity for the next 30 years. Photovoltaic technologies were assumed to compete on cost alone with 52 other energy generation technologies in the US, in a deregulated environment...
