Analysis of losses and power quality disturbances of grid connected PV system with different load profiles

摘要

Depending on actual load profiles connected to grid containing a PV system, losses and power quality disturbances vary during the day due to the power unbalance in the connection node. With the increase in size of PV power plants this problem becomes more important. Different load profiles have different correlation with the daily power generation from the PV system. Therefore, economic and technical impact of different daily load curves on grid connected PV systems should be considered. This paper gives an analysis of aforementioned problems. After the description and comparison between different load profiles and daily load curves, a simulation model is described and different situations of occurring problems are tested and analyzed. Simulations were carried out with real load profiles. Finally, this paper gives an overview of problems and gives few proposes for their solution.
