Abstract
When photovoltaic stations operate, providing large populated areas of the planet, and generating significant amounts of electrical energy, problems often arise due to the inconstancy of the flux of incident solar radiation. This leads to failures in the operation of electrical networks and rapid wear of equipment. By equipping such facilities with new systems for the control and monitoring of photovoltaic parameters, it is possible to significantly increase the generation of electrical energy supplied to the general or local power system, and improve the efficiency of the electrical installations located at the solar power plant. The proposed work presents a general approach to modeling and controlling the operation of photovoltaic systems (PV systems). The necessary data for modeling are provided by manufacturers in the form of tables. The processing of this data provides experimenters and engineers with a convenient way to investigate the problems of integrating photovoltaic systems into uninterruptible generation installations to supply individual consumers. The two-stage power conversion system (PCS) proposed in this article works in conjunction with a photovoltaic generating system. The electrical energy storage system (BESS system) uses rechargeable batteries and can be connected to the DC circuit by means of a bidirectional converter. Thus, the BESS system may provide some auxiliary services that may be needed to improve operational efficiency during the generation process. This article describes a special system of uninterrupted operation (FRT-system), which allows you to create the possibility of uninterrupted operation and the generation of electrical energy by the generation system, in case of incorrect operation of individual nodes (for example, with partial shading of solar modules). The operation of an integrated generation system, an electric energy storage system (BESS-system) and a photovoltaic system (PV-system), together with the corresponding control systems simulated on Matlab platforms and the simulation results confirm the efficiency of the controller. When introducing the proposed systems at existing and under construction solar power plants (SPP), it is possible to significantly improve the efficiency of their work and increase the generation of electricity for consumers.
