[PDF Version]In the design of the “photovoltaic + energy storage” system construction scheme studied, photovoltaic power generation system and energy storage system cooperate with each other to complete grid-connected power generation.
Grid-connected PV systems enable consumers to contribute unused or excess electricity to the utility grid while using less power from the grid. The application of the system will determine the system's configuration and size. Residential grid-connected PV systems are typically rated at less than 20 kW.
Particularly at high PV penetration levels, PV systems should maintain grid connectivity through reactive power injection in reaction to voltage faults to prevent instigating extreme incidents, such as blackouts. To further reduce the cost of energy, it is necessary to enhance both dependability and efficiency.
