Abstract— The small scale electricity generators such as solar photovoltaic (PV) systems are generally connected to the grid at the primary or secondary distribution and are considered as distributed generation (DG). Often, these small scale renewable generators cannot be directly connected to the grid.
Grid interconnection of photovoltaic (PV) power generation system has the advantage of more effective utilization of generated power. However, the technical requirements from both the utility power system grid side and the PV system side need to be satisfied to ensure the safety of the PV installer and the reliability of the utility grid.
Therefore, in order to satisfy the load demand, grid connected energy systems are now becomes promising options that combine solar and conventional energy systems to meet the future energy demand at reduces consumption of fossil fuels. In the present work it is tried to develop a small scale grid connected solar photovoltaic (SPV) system.
Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Electrical Engineering ( (LNEE,volume 795)) Recently, small-scale grid-connected PV systems are acquiring familiarity in institutions and industries mainly due to their clean and climate-friendly attribute. A 104 kW grid-connected PV system at Kattankulathur, Tamil Nadu, is discussed in this paper.
We find that the system is feeding power to the grid successfully. From the performance analysis of the system we found that the power feeding to the grid maximum 814 W at the radiation of around 1003 W/m 2 and the overall system efficiencies are varying from 12.3% to 18.42% at different level of solar intensity.
METHODOLOGY Grid connected PV system can be designed in various ways, like with battery, without battery, with or without transformer etc. Here without battery grid interconnected system is used, because of short life time, large replacement cost, and increased installation cost.
