研究目的
Investigating the impact of battery operation on the PV inverter reliability in a residential PV-BESS system under a self-consumption scheme.
研究成果
The integration of battery systems in PV applications can improve PV inverter reliability by reducing loading during battery charging. The study shows an 11% reduction in accumulated damage over one year of operation. Battery capacity and converter power rating significantly affect PV inverter reliability, with larger battery capacities and smaller converter power ratings offering further improvements. However, these parameters should be optimized considering other design aspects to maximize the overall benefit of the battery system in PV applications.
研究不足
The study focuses on the reliability of PV inverters in a specific configuration (DC-coupled PV-BESS) and under a self-consumption scheme. The analysis is based on mission profiles from a single location (Lindenberg, Germany), which may not represent all operational conditions. The impact of battery system parameters is analyzed, but other design aspects like cost and battery lifetime are not fully integrated into the optimization.
