Communication and Control for High PV Penetration under Smart Grid
In the report, the communication and control system architecture models to enable distributed solar PV to be integrated into the future smart grid environment were reviewed.
Grid-connected PV inverters have traditionally been thought as active power sources with an emphasis on maximizing power extraction from the PV modules. While maximizing power transfer remains a top priority, utility grid stability is now widely acknowledged to benefit from several auxiliary services that grid-connected PV inverters may offer.
China, the United States, India, Brazil, and Spain were the top five countries by capacity added, making up around 66 % of all newly installed capacity, up from 61 % in 2021 . Grid-connected PV inverters have traditionally been thought as active power sources with an emphasis on maximizing power extraction from the PV modules.
Emerging and future trends in control strategies for photovoltaic (PV) grid-connected inverters are driven by the need for increased efficiency, grid integration, flexibility, and sustainability.
The existing communication technologies, protocols and current practice for solar PV integration are also introduced in the report. The survey results show that deployment of communication and control systems for distributed PV systems is increasing.
