Abstract:
Technological development and the reduction of installation costs have caused a rapid growth of solar power plants in Indonesia. The National Electricity Company (Perusahaan Listrik Negara, PLN) strives to achieve the energy mix of renewable energy to 23% by 2025. Solar power plants are unique in that they only supply their power during the daytime. It makes solar power plants connected to the power system change the load profile of the Java-Bali system. In this study, the penetration of solar power plants changed the scheduling of the Java-Bali system because the penetration was installed to the technical minimum loading of existing power plants. When penetration is too big, thermal generator scheduling failure is possible. Unit commitment and economic dispatch with mixed-integer linear programming (MILP) method using CPLEX and Python were carried out to calculate the fuel and generation costs per kWh before and after the penetration. MILP was used to solve the cost fuel equation, namely an integer and nonlinear mix equations, that are challenging to be solved using standar nonlinear programming methods. Due to the use of the MILP-UC, all objective function equations and restraint functions must be linear functions. The tests were conducted for three years, from 2023 to 2025. Simulation results on the Java-Bali system show that the capacity of solar power plants penetrating the Java-Bali system against the peak load will be 52%, 52%, and 50% in 2023, 2024, and 2025, respectively. Meanwhile, penetration of solar power plants to technical minimum loading of existing power plants resulted in the fuel cost falling by 23% in 2023 and 22% in 2024 and 2025. Lastly, the cost of generation per kWh will be decreased by 8% in 2023 and will be as low as 7% in 2024 and 2025.

Abstract:
The penetration level of a PV system is often limited due to the violation of voltage variation introduced by the large intermittent power generation. This paper discusses the use of an active power curtailment strategy to reduce PV power injection during peak solar irradiation to prevent voltage violation so that the PV penetration level of a distribution feeder can be increased to fully utilize solar energy. When using the proposed voltage control scheme for limiting PV power injection into the study distribution feeder during high solar irradiation periods, the total power generation and total energy delivered by the PV system over a 1-year period are determined according to the annual duration of solar irradiation. With the proposed voltage control to perform the partial generation rejection of PV systems, the optimal installation capacity of PV systems can be determined by maximizing the net present value of the system so that better cost effectiveness of the PV project and better utilization of solar energy can be obtained.

Abstract:
There is an increasing trend among customers of an electrical distribution utility to adopt grid-tied solar photovoltaic systems. This shift offers multiple benefits to consumers, including lower monthly electricity bills and a contribution to the development of green energy. For the electrical distribution utility, various impacts may arise due to varying levels of solar energy penetration. This study investigates the effects of integrating varying levels of solar photovoltaic penetration into the commercial consumer network of Cagayan de Oro Electric Power and Light Company (CEPALCO) in the Philippines. Utilizing PowerWorld simulator, the research evaluates 11 different scenarios with solar penetration levels adjusted according to the percentage of load demand. Key findings include alterations in solar megavolt ampere of reactive power output, bus voltage levels, transformer power loading, and transmission line ampacity, with frequency levels remaining stable across scenarios. The optimal solar penetration level was identified at 70%, balancing the benefits of solar energy integration with the need to maintain grid stability and operational limits. This optimal level ensures the effective utilization of renewable energy sources without compromising the performance of CEPALCO’s electrical infrastructure. The research concludes with recommendations for maintaining grid stability and operational limits at the optimal solar penetration limits.

Abstract:
This research shows a structural voltage stability analysis of a distribution network incorporating large-scale solar photovoltaic power plant. Detailed modeling of the transmission network and photovoltaic systems is presented and a differential-algebraic equations model is developed. The resulting system state and load-flow Jacobian matrix are reorganized according to the type of the bus system in place of the standard injected complex power equations arrangement. The interactions among system buses for loading tests and solar photovoltaic power penetration are structurally scrutinized. Two-bus bifurcations are revealed to be a predecessor to system voltage collapse. The investigation is carried out by using bifurcation diagrams of photovoltaic generation margin, load-flow analysis, short-circuits, photovoltaic farm disconnections and loading conditions. Furthermore, evaluation of voltage stability reveals that the dynamic component of the voltage strongly depends on fault short-circuit capacity of the power system at the bus, where, the solar system is integrated. The overall result, which encompasses the views from the presented transmission network integration studies, is a positive outcome for future grid integration of solar photovoltaic in the Tunisian system. Tunisia’s utilities policies on integration of solar photovoltaic in distribution network is expected to benefit from the results of the presented study. Moreover, given the huge potential and need for solar photovoltaic penetration into the transmission network, the presented comprehensive analysis will be a valuable guide for evaluating and improving the performances of national transmission networks of other countries too.

Abstract:
Nowadays, large-scale solar penetration into the grid and the intermittent nature of PV systems are affecting the operation of distribution networks. This paper aims to investigate the effect of PV penetration on a typical medium-voltage distribution network in Malaysia. The main objectives of this study are to investigate voltage stability, power loss, and short circuit under two conditions: peak load and no load. The network is evaluated using two methods: static and dynamic analysis, utilizing the Digsilent Power Factory software. The network comprises two 33/11 kV parallel transformers connected to the 11 kV busbar and consists of 13 feeders and 38 loads. PV penetration of 500 kW per node is added, and the maximum potential PV penetration that is acceptable to connect to the grid is evaluated. The findings indicate that during peak load conditions, some nodes experience violations, but by increasing the PV penetration, the lower violations move up to the acceptable range. The highest power loss is 191 kW, occurring during peak load conditions at 0% PV penetration level. On the other hand, dynamic simulations were carried out with specific load time characteristics, and the results were compared under different PV penetration levels. The dynamic simulation results show that during contingency conditions, there are violations in peak load, and the maximum PV penetration for this study was determined to be 2MW. It is observed that the nodes 27, 28, and 29 violate lower voltage limits even at 100% PV penetrations.

Abstract:
Solar photovoltaic (PV) power generation has shown a worldwide remarkable growth in recent years. In order to achieve the increasing energy demand, a large number of residential PV units are connected to the low voltage (LV) distribution networks. However, high integration of solar PV could cause negative impacts on distribution grids leading to violations of limits and standards. The voltage rise has been recognized as one of the major implications of increased PV integration, which could significantly restrict the capacity of the distribution network to support higher PV penetration levels. This study addresses the performance of the off-load tap changing transformer under high solar PV penetration and a detailed analysis has been carried out to examine the maximum allowable PV penetration at discrete tap positions of the transformer. The maximum PV penetration has been determined by ensuring that all nodal voltages adhere to grid voltage statutory limits. The simulation results demonstrate that the first two tap positions could be adopted to control the grid voltage under higher PV penetrations thus facilitating further PV influx into the existing network.

Abstract:
Modern low-voltage distribution systems necessitate solar photovoltaic (PV) penetration. One of the primary concerns with this grid-connected PV system is overloading due to reverse power flow, which degrades the life of distribution transformers. This study investigates transformer overload issues due to reverse power flow in a low-voltage network with high PV penetration. A simulation model of a real urban electricity company in Ghana is investigated against various PV penetration levels by load flows with ETAP software. The impact of reverse power flow on the radial network transformer loadings is examined for high PV penetrations. Using the least squares method, simulation results are modelled in Excel software. Transformer backflow limitations are determined by correlating operating loads with PV penetration. At high PV penetration, the models predict reverse power flow into the transformer. Interpolations from the correlation models show transformer backflow operating limits of 78.04 kVA and 24.77% at the threshold of reverse power flow. These limits correspond to a maximum PV penetration limit of 88.30%. In low-voltage networks with high PV penetration; therefore, planners should consider transformer overload limits caused by reverse power flow, which degrades transformer life. This helps select control schemes near substation transformers to limit reverse power flow.

Abstract:
The growing popularity of photovoltaic (PV) generation systems leads to an increase in the number of residential and commercial grid-tied PV systems that interconnect to the distribution circuit. This affects the characteristics of the distribution circuit; for example, the assumption that the voltage profile of a radial line decreases down-stream becomes invalid because of the addition of the PV system on the line. This poses new challenges when setting the parameters of voltage regulating devices. Add to that the fact that PV systems are intermittent, especially on cloudy days, which make the line even more difficult to regulate, and the number of switching occurrences of the regulating devices increases, thus accelerating wear-and-tear to the utility’s equipment. The objective of this thesis is to develop an index which qualitatively indicates the impact of PV system(s) on operation, efficiency, reliability, and lifetime of voltage regulation equipment. Tests on the proposed index will be performed on several cases including circuits containing state-of-the art methods that integrate PV systems with minimum impact to utility equipment. Investigation of methods to further mitigate equipment wear by selecting the best interconnect point on the circuit will also be conducted to test the proposed index. The development and validation of the proposed index will entail power system modeling and simulation of distributed generation using PSCAD. The proposed index resulted from this study will provide a useful tool to allow utility companies pick the optimum locations for distributed generation to minimize their negative impact on the distribution lines as well as to determine the need for extra mitigation equipment.

Abstract:
Although tropical regions receive a significant amount of solar radiation throughout the year, most tropical countries have low solar photovoltaic (PV) penetration. Indonesia has around 208 gigawatts of solar potential but less than one percent of this potential has been harnessed. This research combined both quantitative and qualitative research to develop a framework for increasing solar PV microgrid penetration in Indonesia. A techno-economic evaluation was performed to identify the performance of a solar PV microgrid in Indonesia and to evaluate its economic potential based on two different land acquisition scenarios. Additionally, surveys and interviews were conducted to obtain some perspectives from key stakeholders regarding the policy landscape of the country. The study shows that although high solar radiation is great to produce higher power, the performance ratio can be quite low. The economic evaluation shows that the land purchasing scenario can give a higher profit while the land leasing scenario can provide a quick return. This study also found out that the declining investment costs and the presence of a Power Purchase Agreement are the drivers for the development of solar PV microgrid in the countries. In contrast, the unstable grid connection and the insufficient technical knowledge are some barriers to this development. The development of solar PV microgrid in Indonesia is a complex issue because of a complex relationship between different technical, financial, social and regulatory aspects. The financial aspect, particularly the presence of a solar PV market, has been seen as the top priority to be resolved in the country. After determining the priority, a framework for successful implementation of solar PV microgrid in Indonesia is being developed. The developed framework has four stages in which each key stakeholder has different roles in each stage. Successful implementation of the framework can increase solar PV microgrid penetration in Indonesia.

Abstract:
Due to the rapid growth of grid-tied solar photovoltaic (PV) systems in the generation mix, the distribution grid will face complex operational challenges. High PV penetration can create overvoltages and voltage fluctuations in the network, which are major concerns for the grid operator. Traditional voltage control devices like switched capacitor banks or line voltage regulators can alleviate slow-moving fluctuations, but these devices need to operate more frequently than usual when PV generation fluctuates due to fast cloud movements. Such frequent operations will impact the life expectancy of these voltage control devices. Advanced PV inverter functionalities enable solar PV systems to provide reliable grid support through controlled real injection and/or reactive power compensation. This dissertation proposes a voltage regulation technique to mitigate probable impacts of high PV penetrations on the distribution voltage profile using smart inverter functionalities. A droop-based reactive power compensation method with active power curtailment is proposed, which uses the local voltage regulation at the inverter end. This technique is further augmented with very short-term PV generation forecasts. A hybrid forecasting algorithm is proposed here which is based on measurement-dependent dynamic modeling of PV systems using the Kalman Filter theory. Physical modeling of the PV system is utilized by this forecasting algorithm. Because of the rise in distributed PV systems, modeling of geographic dispersion is also addressed under PV system modeling. The proposed voltage regulation method is coordinated with existing voltage regulator operations to reduce required number of tap-change operations. Control settings of the voltage regulators are adjusted to achieve minimal number of tap-change operations within a predefined time window. Finally, integration of energy storage is studied to highlight the value of the proposed voltage regulation technique vis-à-vis increased solar energy use.<br>Ph. D.

Abstract:
For planning issues, it is useful to know the upper limit for photovoltaics (PV) in the electrical grid with current design and operation (defined as hosting capacity) and how this limit can be increased. Future costs for grid reinforcement can be avoided if measures are taken to implement smart grid technology in the distribution grid. The aim of this project is to identify challenges in Swedish electricity distribution grids with a high penetration of local generation of electricity from PV. The aim is also to help Swedish Distribution System Operators (DSOs) to better understand hosting capacity issues, and to see which room for PV integration there is before there is need for actions to maintain power quality. Three distribution grids are modelled and simulated in Matlab: Rural area, Residential area and City (Stockholm Royal Seaport). Since the project is a cooperation between Uppsala University and Fortum, three different representative grids from Fortum’s grid software ”Power Grid” have been used as input to a flexible simulation program developed at Uppsala University. The simulation includes Newton-Raphson power-flow computing but has also been improved with a model of the temperature dependency of the resistance. The results show that there is room for a lot of PV systems in the Swedish grids. When using voltage rise above 1.1 p.u. voltage as limitation, the hosting capacity 60% PV electricity generation as a fraction of the yearly load were determined for the rural grid and the suburban grid. For the city grid, which is very robust, the hosting capacity 325% was determined. When using overload as limitation, the hosting capacities 70%, 20% and 25%, were determined for the same grids.

Abstract:
Electric Vehicles (EVs) are active loads as they increase the demand for electricity and introduce several challenges to electrical distribution feeders during charging. Demand Response (DR) or performing load control in commercial buildings along with the deployment of solar photovoltaic (PV) and ice storage systems at the building level can improve the efficiency of electricity grids and mitigate expensive peak demand/energy charges for buildings. This research aims to provide such a solution to make EV penetration transparent to the grid. Firstly, this research contributes to the development of an integrated control of major loads, i.e., Heating Ventilation and Air Conditioning (HVAC), lighting and plug loads while maintaining occupant environmental preferences in small- and medium-sized commercial buildings which are an untapped DR resource. Secondly, this research contributes to improvement in functionalities of EnergyPlus by incorporating a 1-minute resolution data set at the individual plug load level. The research evaluates total building power consumption performance taking into account interactions among lighting, plug load, HVAC and control systems in a realistic manner. Third, this research presents a model to study integrated control of PV and ice storage on improving building operation in demand responsive buildings. The research presents the impact of deploying various combinations of PV and ice storage to generate additional benefits, including clean energy generation from PV and valley filling from ice storage, in commercial buildings. Fourth, this research presents a coordinated load control strategy, among participating commercial buildings in a distribution feeder to optimally control buildings' major loads without sacrificing occupant comfort and ice storage discharge, along with strategically deployed PV to absorb EV penetration. Demand responsive commercial building load profiles and field recorded EV charging profiles have been added to a real world distribution circuit to analyze the effects of EV penetration, together with real-world PV output profiles. Instead of focusing on individual building's economic benefits, the developed approach considers both technical and economic benefits of the whole distribution feeder, including maintaining distribution-level load factor within acceptable ranges and reducing feeder losses.<br>Ph.

碩士<br>國立中山大學<br>電機電力工程國際碩士學程<br>102<br>As the popularity of green energy gains momentum, the increase in solar photovoltaic (PV) system power injected into distributed networks is bound to result in voltage standard violation. A study on photovoltaic penetration considering solar irradiance uncertainty is conducted in this thesis to ensure that power quality is within regulatory bounds. The PV unit size with considerable capacity compared with the network size, which consequently affects the penetration level of the solar photovoltaic distributed generation (PVDG), is examined using Monte Carlo to solve a probabilistic power flow (PPF). The PPF accounts for the random nature of solar irradiance and load shape. Therefore, to capture how this randomness affects voltage variation, the PPF is performed at very small time intervals (3.6 seconds) in a quasi-steady state environment. The different penetration levels are statistically compared in order to identify the ideal PV unit size for a test distribution network. This thesis describes the models used for the study, discusses the impacts of PVDG of different penetration level and presents the results of simulations conducted using both MATLAB and OpenDSS software platforms.

Therefore, this paper will develop a set of optimized gene algorithm to predict the grid input parameter like the forecast of photovoltaic power generation and the forecast of load power consumption. Then conveniently transit these data to the dispatch program. In order to develop the algorithm, this paper will carry out the scheduling simulation with Maltab and Visual Studio. Based on meeting the needs of different loads and the operational constraints, the algorithm will set the penetration rate of solar power and variable set. According to demand of grid dispatching, the algorithm will change the required penetration rate of system renewable energy and make more effective use of solar photovoltaic generation capacity. Furthermore, the algorithm will execute with the optimal operation of diesel generating sets and storage battery scheduling. Currently, the algorithm is applied to the operation mode of off-grid micro-grids. By utilizing the charge-discharge status of the dispatched, the algorithm can reduce the discard of renewable energy, increase energy efficiency and make the power grid scheduling more flexible. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm is not only feasible but also provide micro-grid system as reference for immediate control and scheduling.

Abstract:
abstract: An important operating aspect of all transmission systems is power system stability and satisfactory dynamic performance. The integration of renewable resources in general, and photovoltaic resources in particular into the grid has created new engineering issues. A particularly problematic operating scenario occurs when conventional generation is operated at a low level but photovoltaic solar generation is at a high level. Significant solar photovoltaic penetration as a renewable resource is becoming a reality in some electric power systems. In this thesis, special attention is given to photovoltaic generation in an actual electric power system: increased solar penetration has resulted in significant strides towards meeting renewable portfolio standards. The impact of solar generation integration on power system dynamics is studied and evaluated. This thesis presents the impact of high solar penetration resulting in potentially problematic low system damping operating conditions. This is the case because the power system damping provided by conventional generation may be insufficient due to reduced system inertia and change in power flow patterns affecting synchronizing and damping capability in the AC system. This typically occurs because conventional generators are rescheduled or shut down to allow for the increased solar production. This problematic case may occur at any time of the year but during the springtime months of March-May, when the system load is low and the ambient temperature is relatively low, there is the potential that over voltages may occur in the high voltage transmission system. Also, reduced damping in system response to disturbances may occur. An actual case study is considered in which real operating system data are used. Solutions to low damping cases are discussed and a solution based on the retuning of a conventional power system stabilizer is given in the thesis.<br>Dissertation/Thesis<br>Masters Thesis Electrical Engineering 2015

abstract: At present, almost 70% of the electric energy in the United States is produced utilizing fossil fuels. Combustion of fossil fuels contributes CO2 to the atmosphere, potentially exacerbating the impact on global warming. To make the electric power system (EPS) more sustainable for the future, there has been an emphasis on scaling up generation of electric energy from wind and solar resources. These resources are renewable in nature and have pollution free operation. Various states in the US have set up different goals for achieving certain amount of electrical energy to be produced from renewable resources. The Southwestern region of the United States receives significant solar radiation throughout the year. High solar radiation makes concentrated solar power and solar PV the most suitable means of renewable energy production in this region. However, the majority of the projects that are presently being developed are either residential or utility owned solar PV plants. This research explores the impact of significant PV penetration on the steady state voltage profile of the electric power transmission system. This study also identifies the impact of PV penetration on the dynamic response of the transmission system such as rotor angle stability, frequency response and voltage response after a contingency. The light load case of spring 2010 and the peak load case of summer 2018 have been considered for analyzing the impact of PV. If the impact is found to be detrimental to the normal operation of the EPS, mitigation measures have been devised and presented in the thesis. Commercially available software tools/packages such as PSLF, PSS/E, DSA Tools have been used to analyze the power network and validate the results.<br>Dissertation/Thesis<br>M.S.

Abstract:
Integration of renewable energy sources (RES) into traditional power system is one of the most viable technologies to meet the ever-increasing energy demand efficiently. Penetrating renewable distributed generators (DGs) such as solar panels, wind turbines into low-voltage distribution network is being a popular tradition nowadays. Increased interconnection of renewable DGs such as solar PVs arise several crucial issues that actually impose limitations on the amount of solar PV penetration. The most significant issue that arises due to large-scale PV interconnection with low-voltage power distribution system is voltage regulation issue. Due to high power generation during midday by solar PVs, the excess power, after satisfying the load demand, reverses back to distribution grid, which causes voltage rise through the feeder. On the other hand, during evening, there is increased load demand and there is no PV generation. As a result, evening peak load consumes high power from distribution grid, which causes voltage sag. These phenomena cause the feeder voltage to exceed the allowable voltage zone and trip the power supply. To interconnect solar PVs into distribution grid spontaneously, intelligent and robust voltage control strategies should be designed and implemented to regulate the feeder voltage within allowable limit. Firstly, this thesis attempts to present a detailed overview of voltage control strategies that are being utilized to mitigate voltage regulation challenges when increased amount of renewable DGs are penetrated. The impact of high PV penetration on single bus and multi-bus low-voltage distribution systems have been analysed with mathematical representations. A comprehensive qualitative analysis has been performed for different voltage control approaches with comparisons among them. In addition, recent status of ongoing research on distribution system voltage control strategies has been briefly analysed. This thesis has proposed novel mitigation strategies for the adverse impacts of high penetration of solar PVs on feeder voltages. A novel intelligent, adaptive and robust control strategy has been proposed for PV interfacing 3-phase inverters where the control parameters of proportional-integral-derivative control scheme is dynamically auto-tuned in real time by adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) to provide robust response during any nonlinear and fluctuating operating conditions. This ANFIS-based PID (ANFISPID) is capable of handling fluctuating operating conditions and damping system oscillations, which ensures power system stability and reliability. ANFISPID controls the injection/ absorption of appropriate reactive power by 3-phase PV interfacing inverter and regulates the voltage at point of common coupling (PCC). A novel intelligent supervisory energy management system (EMS) based on ANFIS has been proposed to control the charge/ discharge of battery energy storage system (BESS) to provide voltage support at PCC. The performance of the cooperative operation of these two novel voltage control strategies has been analysed and evaluated in realistic low-voltage distribution system model and their performance has been compared with classic PID control scheme and classic EMS in different worst-case scenarios. Then, the impact of high PV penetration has been evaluated on large-distribution system with multiple buses and a novel distributed cooperative voltage control strategy has been proposed to regulate the bus voltages through the feeder in a coordinated fashion. A discrete event-triggered communication-based distributed cooperative control strategy has been proposed to control BESSs and PV interfacing inverters for feeder voltage regulation that requires minimal communication. The distributed cooperative voltage control strategy has been separated into two different control layers (distributed control layer and cooperative control layer). Discrete event-triggered communication mechanism has been implemented among neighbour agents in each layer and appropriate triggering conditions have been designed that dramatically reduces the amount of communication and relax the real-time information exchange requirement among agents. A realistic radial distribution feeder has been designed in MATLAB/ Simulink environment to show that the proposed discrete event-triggered distributed cooperative voltage control strategy requires lower communication rates while preserving the desired voltage control performance. Finally, the impact of high penetration of solar PVs on feeder bus voltages has been evaluated on a partly cloudy day. The performance of the discrete event-triggered communication based distributed cooperative control has been evaluated in the occurrences of random communication link failures. An algorithm has been designed and implemented to provide robustness against random communication link failures while implementing distributed voltage control through the feeder. Overall, in this thesis, the impacts of large-scale solar PV penetration into low-voltage distribution network on the PCC and across the feeder have been analysed. Novel control strategies have been designed and implemented to regulate the voltage and their performances have been evaluated in realistic low-voltage distribution system model in MATLAB/ Simulink environment.

Abstract:
Abstract Electric vehicles (EV) and local renewable resources provide a potential for substantial decarbonization of the transportation sector. A large number of electric vehicles have the potential to decrease the pressure of the existing electricity network and can significantly balance the amount of extra non-stored renewable energy generated in the market. However, mass adoption of electric vehicles also requires charging infrastructures and charging hubs. Solar photovoltaics-EV and wind-EV are two recommended options for Ireland considering country’s present energy state and high penetration of renewable energy sources such as wind, wave, and solar photovoltaics. Three domestic scenarios are investigated: Integration of solar photovoltaics with EVs; Integration of wind energy with EVs; and a hybrid system. In this research, the size of a charging station is optimized based on each scenario. A comparative study is carried out between the different configurations with regards to CO2 emissions and annual energy charges. The feasibility of integration to the grid is analyzed as the grid-connected scenario. The optimal cost and emission for the hybrid PV/wind system includes the installed capacity of both renewable sources as well as the power transferred to the grid. Those variables are reflected in the annual energy production and levelized cost. Finally, the best option in terms of both cost and energy reliability is evaluated for each scenario.

Abstract:
The rapid growth in grid penetration of photovoltaic (PV) calls for more accurate methods to forecast the performance and reliability of PV. Several methods have been proposed to forecast the PV power generation at different temporal horizons. In this chapter the different methods used in PV power forecasting are described with an example on their applications and related uncertainty. The methods discussed include physical, heuristic, statistical and machine learning methods. When benchmarked, it is shown that physical method showed the highest uncertainties compared to other methods. In the chapter, the effect of degradation on lifetime PV power and energy forecast is also assessed using linear and non-linear degradation scenarios. It is shown that the relative difference in lifetime yield prediction is over 5% between linear and non-linear scenarios.

Abstract:
This chapter proposes a mixed-integer optimization using genetic algorithm (MIOGA) for determining the optimum sizes and placements of battery-sourced solar photovoltaic (B-SSPV) plants to reduce the total energy losses in distribution networks. Total energy loss index (TELI) is formulated as the main objective function and meanwhile bus voltage deviations and PV penetrations of B-SSPV plants are calculated. To deal the stochastic behavior of solar irradiance, 15 years of weather data is modeled by using beta probability density function (Beta-PDF). The proposed algorithm is applied on IEEE 33 bus and IEEE 69 bus test distribution networks and optimum results are acquired for different time varying voltage dependent load models. From the results, it is known that, compared to PV only, the integration of B-SSPV plants in the distribution networks resulted in higher penetration levels in distribution networks. The proposed algorithm was very effective in terms of determining the sizes of the PV plant and the battery storage, and for the charging and discharging of the battery storage.

Abstract:
It is feasible to add the function of energy generation to a typical building fenestration component by inserting photovoltaics within windows. Electrical power can undoubtedly be generated on-site. The influence of PV windows on the interior lighting environment of the region they serve, on the other hand, has yet to be well studied. This paper presents the potential impact of semi-transparent photovoltaic windows on the daylighting performance of an institutional building window. Transparent PV solar cells capture and use undesired light energy via windows in buildings and are incorporated with existing window panes. This affects the overall power and natural daylight penetrating the indoor space. Integrating si-based, opaque-spaced cells with transparent thin film technologies, the performance of three façade configurations is investigated concerning their luminance level during the summer seasons of a composite climate, followed by simulations of a semi-transparent PV module, which is possible through radiation. This report presents a study that will provide enough evidence to broaden the development of solar cells integrated with windows for added clean energy production and the advancement of daylight luminance.

Abstract:
An overview of the market potential of various solar electric technologies considers the application to both distributed generation (DG) systems and building integrated systems. The State of California is used as an example of the analysis of system performance, economic return on investment and market penetration over the next decade. California was chosen as a test case because of recent central generation and T&amp;D shortages. In the distributed generation context, solar energy has the potential to meet a large portion of the peak demand of California. With existing tax credits, systems are cost effective in certain locations at the present time. PV can be installed relatively quickly (weeks) on existing residential and commercial buildings with no requirements for the lengthy environmental reviews and siting problems of most power plants; therefore they are the fastest source which can be deployed in most locations in California. The approach in this article uses hourly loads derived from standard simulations. Along with the California building inventory by building type, hourly solar system simulations for standard buildings from each sector (e.g., hospitals, restaurants, schools, offices) and microeconomic calculations, returns on investment for each location and each building type are found. Finally the Bass diffusion model is used to calculate the number of solar modules that will be sold each year for the next decade. Results show that much of the output of the US photovoltaic industry could be economically dispatched in California.
