This paper presents the performance of PV(Photovoltaic) system, the design of MPPT(Maximum Power Point Tracker). Output of PV power system is DC, and PV power system is linked to the DC bus. The current(I)-voltage(V) output characteristic of PV cells changes with solar irradiance and cell temperature as parameters. As various PV modules respond differently to each of the parameters cited above. Maximum output of PV modules am be achieved by MPPT(Maximum Power Point Tracker) algorithm This paper includes a discussion on the performance of PV module, MPPT algorithm and the influence of PV module angle.

With Korean Government's Renewable energy 3020 plan and 8th Basic plan for long-term power supply, renewable energy industries in Korea are active and catching attention from many relevant industry's relations. Especially with Interconnection guarantee policy established in Oct, 2016, DERs interconnection delay due to lack of allowable distribution hosting capacity is happening and reduction of reinforcement cost for distribution system where 70 % of DERs in South Korea are installed became one of important issues of KEPCO. Therefore, KEPCO needed to extract reasonable solutions to increase feasible hosting capacity of distribution feeders in order to reduce reinforcement cost under the condition of no matter in distribution system operation. This paper proposes feasible hosting capacity of distribution feeders that can be adopted and the status of DER installation in distribution system, PV output data, minimum load in distribution feeders as well as capacity of distribution lines have been investigated and analyzed in proof of the proposal.
