Using time-independent analysis in optimizing inverter efficiency for grid-connected photovoltaic systems
… and evaluating grid-connected photovoltaic (PV) systems is introduced, which establishes a direct relationship between the inputs to the system, temperature and irradiance, and system performance criteria. For a given year, temperature and irradiance data are rearranged to form a statistical …

Architectures and algorithms for voltage control in power distribution systems
… through power electronics, e.g., photovoltaic (PV) installations. In the slow time-scale control, we propose a method to optimally set the tap position of voltage regulation transformers. We formulate a rank-constrained semidefinite program (SDP), which is then relaxed to obtain a convex …

An Economic Analysis of Residential Photovoltaic Systems with and without Energy Storage
<p>Residential photovoltaic (PV) systems serve as a source of electricity generation that is separate from the traditional utilities. Investor investment into residential PV systems provides several financial benefits such as federal tax credit incentives for installation, net metering credit from …

An economic valuation of solar energy potential in Nigeria
… an economic valuation of the solar photovoltaic (PV) potential in Nigeria. Assuming a 100 megawatts (MW) capacity upgrade, this paper compares distributed residential-scale and centralized utility-scale PV configurations under lower 2013 and higher 2016 PV project cost assumptions. Metrics such as …

A study of the solar energy systems and storage devices
… solar power research. These are photovoltaic (PV) systems and the concentrated solar power (CSP). The PV systems are made of solar panels and power electronic circuits. They are mostly economical in small residential units. The CSPs on the other hand which are made of solar field, thermal …

Economic valuation of energy storage coupled with photovoltaics : current technologies and future projections
… storage systems coupled with photovoltaic (PV) systems is presented. The solar-with-storage system's operation is optimized for two different rate schedules: (1) Time-of-use (TOU) for residential systems, and (2) Real-time wholesale rates for centralized generators. Nine storage technologies …
