Abstract

Monitoring of energy produced by the solar power plant (SPP) with a capacity of 618.8 kWp at HKBP Nommensen University in Medan is carried out using the FusionSolar application. This SPP energy management application includes displaying yield, energy consumption, energy exports, and SPP energy imports. The amount of energy displayed using the FusionSolar application is compared with the amount of energy resulting from manual calculations based on power data displayed on the alternating current (AC) combiner panel from 3-phase inverters. This comparison was carried out over seven days of measurements. It produced an average difference of 5.779%, with a correction value of 0.942, so the energy reading resulting from the FusionSolar application must be multiplied by this correction value.

Abstract

We analyze the J-V characteristics of silicon vertical multi-junction solar cells. The J-V characteristic data includes J0, RS, Rsh, n, and Jph, representing saturation current density, series resistance, shunt resistance, ideality factor, and photocurrent density, respectively, and are utilized to extract the parameters of these multi-junction solar cells. These parameters were recently acquired in a previous investigation. In our research, we developed a MATLAB code to investigate the efficiency variation with concentration using the nonlinear least-squares method, following a similar approach as the previous study. Our findings reveal that the algorithm effectively utilizes electrical parameters obtained through the nonlinear least-squares method, ensuring stable convergence and faithful replication of experimental J-V characteristics. Our findings indicate that an increase in light concentration from 1 to 100 suns leads to an efficiency improvement from 19.4 to 26.2%. However, beyond 100 suns, the efficiency declines from 26.2 to 17.3%. The most influential parameter in determining solar cell efficiency is the open-circuit voltage, Voc. Our experiments have shown an increase in this voltage with light concentration. For instance, its value changes from around 19.147 V at 1 sun to approximately 25.491 V at 500 suns.

Abstract

Renewable source penetration into the distribution grid is merely a greater challenge as the powers from renewable sources are not stable and constant. Due to their sporadic operating states the power shared to the grid creates power quality issues. Therefore, an efficient adaptive PMA needs to be adopted for the control of these renewable sources, which controls the power extraction of these sources. For standard power sharing to the variable loads in the grid islanding state, the renewable sources are updated with the ESS module. In this paper, a low-rating distribution test system is considered connected with different renewable sources PV sources, wind farms, and fuel cell plants sharing renewable power. The PV source module is updated with AF-PID replacing the PI controller integrated PMA and ESS module for extensive control of the power of the generation unit during any operating condition. The DC and AC voltages are more stabilized by the upgraded PMA during grid islanding conditions. Mitigation of ripple and harmonic content is achieved by the AF-PID controller varying the proportional, integral, and derivative gains as per the error signal generated. A comparative analysis is carried out on the system validating the effectiveness of the AF-PID controller using MATLAB Simulink software.

Abstract

Many motorized vehicles use non-environmentally friendly fuels causing more pollution. To tackle this, electric vehicles with battery technology are becoming popular. Many electric cars use Li-ion battery packs. However, these battery packs can have differences between individual batteries, affecting their performance. When electric cars accelerate, the batteries can get imbalanced, which shortens their lifespan. To prevent this, a balancing circuit is needed to make sure each battery cell stays equal. To get the balancing current according to the needs of each battery cell and switching network components. As a result, this research creates a cell-to-cell active balancing using the quasi-resonant buck converter that can reduce ripple from zeta converter output. Fuzzy type-2-BEC adjusts the duty cycle zeta converter circuits. The output is set equal to the average cell voltage. Four pieces of Li-ion are connected in the series at 14.4 V/3 Ah. To test the balancers, two variations were used to determine the system's reliability. From the test result, variation one can balance all cells at the 60 s, and variation two can balance all cells at the 150 s.

Abstract

This paper introduces a novel method for controlling shunt active power filters (SAPFs) to improve network efficiency and reduce carbon emissions in the utility sector. It addresses the problem of current harmonics degrading system performance by employing reference current generation based on the least mean square (LMS) algorithm, it decomposes distorted current into fundamental active, fundamental reactive and harmonic components. Traditionally, LMS implementations suffer from poor dynamic response due to uniform learning rates. To overcome this, the method adjusts the learning rates for fundamental active and reactive components separately, improving dynamic response and reducing computational complexity. Extensive analysis validates the effectiveness of this approach under various conditions, demonstrating its superiority in enhancing system performance and reducing carbon emissions in electrical networks.

Abstract

An essential control mechanism for solar panels, maximum power point tracking (MPPT) constantly adjusts the operating point to maximize power extraction from changing environmental conditions, ensuring that the panels run at peak efficiency. To maximize energy yield, improve overall system performance, and add to the financial feasibility of solar installations, MPPT is crucial in today's energy landscape, which is increasingly focused on clean and renewable sources. In this study, we test four popular photovoltaic maximum power point tracking (MPPT) algorithms in different weather scenarios: perturb and observe (P&O), fuzzy logic, grey wolf optimizer (GWO), and horse herd optimization (HHO). Key parameters such as efficiency, responsiveness to partial shading, and adaptability to changing environmental conditions are analyzed using MATLAB models to evaluate each algorithm's performance in depth. The results show where each algorithm excels and where it falls short, and the research stands out by incorporating new features into the models. Our study seeks to provide valuable insights for the development of photovoltaic (PV) MPPT algorithms, guiding future research and applications in the ever-changing field of renewable energy systems. We will focus on making these algorithms more flexible in dynamic environments and resilient in partial shading situations.

Abstract

This study presents a methodology for performance evaluation and loss analysis of two photovoltaic (PV) power plants in Vietnam with different geographical locations and climatic conditions. An experimental methodology is utilized to analyze the system losses. Data was collected from the BIM2 (250 MWp) and Buon Ma Thuot (35 MWp) plants. The results show that system losses do not exceed 1.3%, with performance rates ranging from 73-79% for BIM2 and 74-88% for Buon Ma Thuot. Correlation analysis between module operating temperature, solar irradiance, and energy yield reveals an inverse relationship between the temperature-irradiance ratio and energy yield. A considerable decline in power plant efficiency is observed when this ratio exceeds 8. Additionally, vital monitored indices for PV plant operation are investigated, including energy supplied to the grid, PV array temperature, ambient temperature, and loss metrics.

Abstract

In this paper, we introduce a comprehensive design and control strategy for an energy storage system based on compressed air to enhance both electrical energy quality and operational flexibility. The formulation of this control structure involved extensive calculations and computer simulations, which now require experimental validation. We describe the specifically designed test benches for this purpose and present an analysis of the experimental results. The paper begins with a brief overview of the didactic bench used to test the pure pneumatic conversion system, followed by the presentation and discussion of the initial practical results of the maximum energy point tracking (MEPT) strategy derived from this bench.

Abstract

Voltage source inverter has been applied for uninterruptible power supply (UPS), renewable energy sources, and motor drive. The popular modulations for inverters are sinusoidal pulse width modulation (SPWM), zero sequence signal modulation (ZSS), space vector modulation (SVM), and discontinuous PWM (DPWM). All these modulations have been applied to three-phase and multiphase inverters. The characteristics of the modulation application in these inverters have been well investigated. However, only SPWM has been applied satisfactorily in single-phase inverter. From the literature, the applications of ZSS and DPWM couldn’t show any benefit. In this paper, a DPWM is proposed for single-phase inverter. The output current ripple is analyzed and experiments are conducted to verify the analytical result. Comparison to SPWM is conducted to find the modulation index range that provides a benefit when using the DPWM.

Abstract

The primary aim of this study is to examine the behaviour of the photovoltaic plant installed in Kabertene, Algeria, under desert climate conditions. Simulations and modeling have been carried out for the photovoltaic cell, panel, and array under standard test conditions as well as a range of different operating conditions. Furthermore, the photovoltaic (PV) plant has been simulated using measured data, PVsyst, and MATLAB Simulink. The aim was to assess the solar energy potential within the examined geographic area and evaluate the performance of the PV plant. The performance of the obtained results was compared in different cases. The real results closely match those of PVsyst and MATLAB software when using real data and the real performance ratio, because it takes into consideration the cleanliness state of the PV panels. The results indicate that environmental factors, especially solar radiation and temperature, exert a considerable effect on the operational capacity of the PV system. This leads to variations in the electrical energy output and the performance ratio of the system. The total yearly energy injected into the grid was 5028.21625 MWh. The annual average daily PV system performance ratio is 67%. Finally, the research concludes that the area has substantial solar potential, encouraging the development of new PV plants.
