Adaptation and optimization of a photovoltaic system for a country house

Abstract

This chapter provides the rationale for monitoring photovoltaic (photovoltaic) systems, its purpose, the need for proper measurement, and the frequency required to obtain meaningful results. The need for system monitoring falls into three groups: user feedback, performance review, and system evaluation. Each group is briefly summarized; other related topics include calibration, data storage, and data transfer. The text covers various monitoring modes such as performance testing, system evaluation, data collection and storage, as well as data analysis and reporting. The evaluation standards given by the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) are noted in the Data Analysis and Reporting section. The figures are provided to illustrate several types of displays that are an integral part of monitoring. Optimized modes of operation of the power part of a household photovoltaic system consisting of photovoltaic panels, an MRRT controller, an inverter and an electric energy storage unit, with Autonomous and network connection of the load. To build an optimal and cost-effective energy management strategy, it is necessary to take into account the energy profile of the resident, the characteristics of electricity production based on photovoltaic cells, and the electricity tariff for utilities. A photovoltaic system can be connected to the grid in order to receive energy from the grid or enter it into the network to eliminate the discrepancy between the generated, consumed and stored energy.
