(PDF) Impact of High Solar Photovoltaic
High penetration of PV systems in an electricity distribution grid causes various issues regarding voltage fluctuation, violation and unbalance.
High penetration of PV systems in an electricity distribution grid causes various issues regarding voltage fluctuation, violation and unbalance. Installations of PV systems at transmission/sub-transmission level affect the power system frequency more than nodal voltages.
In this two-part review, the implications of high PV penetration on the stability and reliability of power systems are comprehensively assessed. This paper, the first of the two, reviews the impacts of PV on the power systems' voltage, frequency, protection, harmonics, rotor angle stability, and flexibility requirement in detail.
The high PV penetration can have serious implications on the stability and reliability of power systems. In this paper – the first part of a two-part review – the characteristics of PV systems that bring challenges for power system integration have been identified.
However, this work showed that PV penetration values as high as 110% can be achieved while fulfilling the voltage constraints if these PV systems are installed in different (evenly distributed) points.
PV penetration limits reported in the literature are examined. The tools and models to analyse the power system impacts are elaborated. As the number of photovoltaic (PV) installations across the world keeps on increasing, their impacts on power systems are becoming more visible and more severe.
Finally, with 100% PV penetration, the availability of solar energy has a significant impact on the load profile, resulting in minimal generator output throughout the day. The time-sequence tap changer study helps analyze the impact of these different penetrations on voltage regulation and system stability.
