Impact of optimum power factor of PV-controlled inverter on the aging and cost-effectiveness of oil-filled transformer considering long-term characteristics
摘要: The photovoltaic (PV) system is one of the most widespread of the renewable energy generation systems that are being used to meet the continuously increasing energy demand. A proposed analytical method is used to find the optimum power factor of PV inverter (PVI) that leads to minimum aging, reduced energy losses cost of the transformer, lower payback period of PV system, and lower green houses gases (GHG) emissions due to the transformer energy losses. In this study, the thermal performance of a 630?kVA mineral oil-filled transformer is simulated in MATLAB programming language. For an association, it is mandatory to connect a PV system to the grid to minimise the transformer loading. The PV output power is used to study the long-term impact of the solar irradiance on the transformer thermal performance. Also, the long-term climatic characteristics are considered. The ambient temperature surrounding the transformer is considered all day long. The load current profile was measured all day long. The results show the aging and cost-effectiveness of the transformer and the payback period of PV system and GHG emissions are a function of PVI power factor.

Assessment of 50?kWp rooftop solar photovoltaic plant at The ICFAI University, Jaipur: A case study
摘要: Currently, India is espousing nonconventional energy sources at an express rate owing to concerns about climate change, emission of harmful greenhouse gases (GHG), and exhausting conventional energy sources. The solar photovoltaic (SPV) plants are, hence, expected to play a noteworthy role to meet energy security and sustainability goals. Contemporary studies reveal substantial ecological concerns associated with installing the ground mounted SPV plants in urban locations. Further observations depict that aforementioned plants need additional land, transmission, and distribution infrastructures. Consequently, rooftop SPV plants are the best solution to produce energy in urban locations, owing to the availability of a large number of empty rooftop spaces with least capacity expenditure. The present article discusses the techno-economic and ecological aspects of a 50 kWp rooftop SPV plant installed at ICFAI University, Jaipur. The plant has produced around 64.149 MWh in the year 2017. The technical assessment focuses on the effects of the meteorological parameters upon energy generation factors. The annual average final yield, reference yield, capacity utilization factor, and performance ratio found to be 106.9 kWh/kWp/month, 149.7 kWh/kWp/month, 14.64 and 70%, respectively. The economic parameters like net present value, internal rate of return, profitability index, and payback period are computed with 0–50% subsidy rates, which supports the financial viability of the plant. The plant contributed significantly to reducing GHG emissions by mitigating 102 t CO2, 128 kg SO2, 268 kg NOx, and 7,033 kg ash in the year 2017 as evident from the ecological investigation.

Technical and Economic Performance of 1MW Grid-connected PV system in Saudi Arabia
摘要: In this paper, a feasibility study has been done utilizing real time solar irradiance data for a 1MW grid-connected PV system in Qassim region in the middle of Saudi Arabia. The analysis has been done using both technical and economic indicators. Technical performance indicators are; Yield Factor, Capacity Factor and Performance Ratio. Economic indicators are; Levelized cost of energy and simple payback time. The simulation results show high energy productivity, and both technical and economic indicators are high compared with similar systems in different countries. Also, the greenhouse gas emission reduction has been estimated. The prices of PV modules and balance of system components are up to date. The analysis results proved the viability of the proposed system supposing there is no any governmental incentives or grants which could make big difference.
