6 FAQs about [Expected results of photovoltaic microgrid system]

How can a microgrid improve the reliability of solar PV?

In order to overcome the problems associated with the intermittency of solar PV and enhance the reliability, energy storage systems like batteries and/or backup systems like diesel generators are commonly included in the microgrids [11, 12].

Does solar PV affect power factor in microgrids?

PV systems can affect the power factor (PF) in an electrical system and microgrids can have unique power factor needs. The solar PV project should be analyzed for PF impact and benefit from a technical and economic perspective in grid-connected and islanded modes.

Do PV based microgrids have a negative environmental impact?

Moreover, battery energy systems are also reported to have negative environmental impacts, which is also required to be taken into consideration while sizing/designing a PV-based microgrid [48 - 50]. In Figure 3, the common design considerations for PV based microgrids have been summarised.

What is a PV-based microgrid?

The name implies the principle component in a PV-based microgrid is the solar PV system. However, the generated output power of a PV system is dependent on the weather condition, that is, solar irradiance and temperature; and the intermittency in the solar irradiance causes fluctuations in the generated output power of the solar PV system.

What is a technical assessment for a solar PV-based microgrid?

Technical assessment is based on the nature of the energy sources and the load of the microgrid. For a solar PV-based microgrid, the main technical aspects that are necessary to be considered include rating of PV modules, tilt angle, fill factor, MPPT, PV efficiency, and efficiencies of the power electronic converters.

Is a hybrid microgrid better than a diesel-only microgrid?

We have demonstrated for sites in California, Maryland, and New Mexico that a hybrid microgrid (which utilizes a combination of solar power, battery energy storage, and networked emergency diesel generators) can offer a more cost-effective and resilient solution than diesel-only microgrids that rely only on a network of emergency diesel generators.
