The purpose of this study is to analyze an economic assessment of PV-ESS systems based on the power generation performance data of solar power (PV) operating in domestic area, and to calculate the optimal capacity of the energy storage system. In this study, PVs in Gyeonggi-do, Jeollabuk-do, and Gyeongsangbuk-do were targeted, and PVs in this area were assumed to be installed on a general site, and the research was conducted by applying weights based on the facility's capacity. All the analysis was conducted using the actual amount of KPX transactions of PVs in 2019. In order to calculate the optimal capacity of PCS and BESS according to GHI, PV with a minimum/maximum/central value was selected by comparing the solar radiation before the horizontal plane between three years (2017-2019) of the location where PV was installed. As a result of the analysis, in Gyeonggi-do, if the REC weight decreases to 3.4 when there is no change in the cost of installing BESS and PCS, it is more economical to link BESS than PV alone operation of PV. In Jeollabuk-do, it was analyzed that if the REC weight was reduced to 3.6, it was more likely to link BESS than PV operated alone. In Gyeongsangbuk-do, it was analyzed that if the REC weight was reduced to 3.4, it was more likely to link BESS than PV operated alone.

A modular photovoltaic PCS with high-frequency isolation is proposed. The proposed system consists of a SEPIC converter and a full-bridge inverter. Using the power slope versus voltage of the PV array, the MPPT controller is proposed that produces a smooth transition to the maximum power point. The disturbance of the line voltage is detected using a fast sensing technique. Experimental results obtained on a 500W prototype show high performance such as almost unity power factor, $90\%$ power efficiency, $3.6\%$ THD.

In this paper, the test results of medium-size(120 kW class) PV system which was installed in the Taeahn thermal power station of Korea Western Power Co., Ltd., were summarized for developing the practical technology to applicate high voltage grid connection PV system. The 120 kW photovoltaic system which was consisted of 1,300 modules, PCS, and 150 kVA transformer station has been operated since Aug. 05, 2005. For verifying the modeling results of PV system, the operation data was compared with modeling results which was executed commercial PSCAD/EMTD and Psim tools. An equivalent circuit model of a solar cell has been also used for solar array modeling. A series of parameters required for array modeling have been estimated from general specification data of a solar module. A PWM voltage source inverter(VIS) and its current control scheme have been analyzed by using P&O (perturbation and Observation) MPPT algorithms technique.

The growing number of nonlinear loads such as static power converters has posed a problem on the quality of electric power supply. The active filters (AF) have been rapidly expanding with the advancement of power electronics technology. The purpose of the active filters is to compensate current harmonics and/or current imbalance. The authors have studied and introduced the PV-AF system; the PV power system, which is used widely as a dispersed source, including the function of active filter to compensate the harmonics caused by nonlinear loads. The PV-AF system has merits not only to compensate harmonics caused by nonlinear loads but also to increase the utilization of PCS. This paper describes the grid-connected single phase PV-AF system and the PSCAD/EMTDC simulation results.

Solar cell is one of the most important new renewable energy for future energy generation. This paper presents a novel two stage DC/DC converter topology for PV PCSs. The proposed converter consists of an interleaved boost converter and a two-tank LLC resonant converter which is connected in parallel in primary and series in secondary. The main idea of this topology is that the system can achieve either unilateral or bilateral operations due to the input voltage level of the PV module, which leads to a better performance. The operating schemes on the proposed converter are analyzed and described. A 2.2kW prototype product is built, tested and verified.

This paper is about the study on MPPT algorithm of PV module where mismatched solar cells exist. PSIM simulation tool was used to verify new MPPT algorithm and PV module modeling was made. It was verified for the proposed algorithm to track the right MPP of PV boost converter under mismatched condition, which shows a shading effect in PV module. An experiment will be done soon using PV simulator for verification of the proposed algorithm.

PV simulators are essential equipment for testing power conditioning systems (PCS) which are one of an important part in PV generator systems, for testing before shipment. High dynamic PV simulator is required since MPPT(Maximum Power Point Tracking) test procedure has been established by EN50530 regulation recently. Most high quality PV simulator prevailed in the market is linear type which however has low efficiency. This paper proposes design guide lines for the power stage and LCL type filter cooperating with a switching mode PV simulator that shows high efficiency and very low power consumption. Proposed theory is verified by experiment.

This study conducted a study on a small-capacity PCS using lithium-ion batteries used in personal mobility. Most of the batteries in Personal Mobility only charge with external chargers and are used only as mobile energy sources. However, this paper aims to charge the battery of PM using PV and system power or to use the charged power as a stand-alone power supply. The developed PCS can be operated as a two-channel battery charger/discharger, a battery charger using solar power, and a stand-alone solar inverter depending on the operation method. The validity of the manufactured small-capacity PCS was verified through experiments.
