Distributed PV Systems an Advantage
Journal Title: IOSR Journals (IOSR Journal of Electrical and Electronics Engineering) - Year 2017, Vol 12, Issue 2
Abstract
Distributed solar photovoltaic (PV) systems have the potential to supply electricity during grid outages resulting from extreme weather or other emergency situations. The PV input energy (Solar Irradiance) for electrical power generation is distributed everywhere, as such this distributed power generation will be boon for electrical energy source. As such, distributed PV can significantly increase the resiliency of the electricity system. The ever increasing population leads to increase in energy demand. To meet this demand, distributed power generation systems are penetrated into the power system to form a new type of power system, the distributed power generation. It can be connected to the main power to different sub power generator models or can operate autonomously. Distributed power generation system has the advantage of reducing blackouts, which affects the power grids. It could also reduce the adverse effects of terrorism, if electric supply is attacked. The deregulated power market is also an important reason for developing the distributed power generation. (1)
