In this paper, to solve the defect of stand-alone type power system in a remote area, a hybrid power system with photovoltaic/wind/diesel generators is proposed. A hybrid power system has a power-balanced controller to equilibrate generation power with a given load demand and which is composed of common DC power system. To execute a power-balanced control, a hybrid power system is assumed that all of power generators have the characteristics of an equivalent current-source and load sharing control technique must be needed at the same time. So this paper describes the algorithm of interactive technique for design of a hybrid power system.

The paper presents a new photovoltaic inverter for stand-alone induction motor application. The proposed system is composed of two stages. First stage is for the photovoltaic dc power feeding and second stage is dedicated to the motor-inverter subsystem and control technique. A direct torque control (DTC) with a novel switching strategy for motor torque ripple minimization is introduced. The novel DTC strategy is based on selecting a suitable voltage vector group for motor torque ripple minimization. A three-level voltage source inverter (VSI) is used instead of a two level inverter because the first has more available vectors and lower ripples in the output current and flux than the second, thus it has lower torque ripples. The photovoltaic array and battery bank are sized and the configuration is indicated based on sun-hour methodology. Simulation results show a comparison between three systems; two level VSI with conventional DTC strategy, three level VSI with conventional DTC, and the proposed system that has a novel DTC switching strategy applied to three level VSI. The results show that the proposed system has lower ripples in the current, flux and torque of the motor.

The isolated self-generating electricity with diesel engine generator has been used in islands far away from main land. It costs high because of increasing oil price, and unsafe to have supplying oil and its related components by ship due to unexpectable marine conditions. Therefore there is the need for the hybrid system of renewable energy like wind or solar energy systems with oil engine generator, which can reduce oil use and extend oil supplying period. In this study, the feasibility of such hybrid system with smart micro grid on the eight islands of Jeon-nam province is surveyed to find good place for the demonstration test of the hybrid system. In each island, 3 wind turbine systems of 10 kW and photovoltaic of 20 kW are tested with already installed diesel engine. The performance and costs of the hybrid system in each island are compared in the given conditions of solar and wind energy potential. As a result of the study, Jung-ma island is recommended for the optimum place to make real field demonstration test of isolated hybrid generating and smart grid systems.

This paper studies stand-alone photovoltaic array for solar lighting lamp. The solar lighting lamp has PV modules, batteries. and charge & discharge system. The charge efficiency is improved for the control of each battery which is divided the charge from the discharge to change the structure of existing solar lighting lamp charge & discharge system. so, the charge and discharge times are reduced of 50%. and the depth of discharge control can be controlled in the discharge cut off voltage. This can be effective of battery use. If a battery is out of order, this system can be executed for a regular period. so we saved the repair cost and developed of system's stabilization. It is possible economical effect to apply for solar lighting lamp used photovoltaic array.

Use of the PV(photovoltaic) generation system is increased in such areas as remote mountain places or islands at which electrical energy is not serviced. The stand alone PV system is required the power storage products such as battery, fly wheel and super capacitor. Several lead storage batteries are connected in series to get high voltages. The life of lead storage battery is shortened when over charge or over discharge takes place. So, it is needed to control batteries not to be overcharged or be discharged deeply. Voltage of each battery was ignored in former control methods in which overall voltage was used to control charge or discharge battery. In this study, the charging and discharging voltage variations of sealed lead storage batteries with l2V/l.2A were investigated step by step experiments. The results of the test show that one should consider and specify the state of each battery to prevent overcharge or deep discharge. With the basis of the experiments, we designed a monitoring unit to monitor battery voltages simultaneously using micro-controller. The unit measures voltage of 20 batteries simultaneously and displays data on the color LCD monitor with curved line graph. It also sends data to PC using the RS232C communication port. The designed unit was adapted to stand alone PV system with 1kW capacity and lead storage batteries are connected to the PV generation system. The number of lead storage batteries was 10 in series and 12V/250Ah each. Resistive load with 3kW was used for discharging.

This paper presents a current-source-inverter based on a buck-boost configuration and its application for residential photovoltaic system. The proposed circuit has five switches. Among them, only one switch acts as chopping, and the other determine the polarity of output; therefore, it can reduce the switching loss. Because the input inductor current is operated on the discontinuous conduction mode, high power factor can be achieved without additional input current controller. So the overall system shows a simple structure. The operational modes are analysed in depth, and then it was verified through the experimental results using a 150 [W] prototype equipped with digital signal processor TMS320F241.

A PVIB(Photovoltaic in Building) system is united by a constituent outer covering and can expect dual effects that reduce expenses for the establishment of a PV system. It is a profitable technology because it does not need a building as it is a stand alone PV system. This paper presents design, operational features analysis, and PCS(Power Conditioning System) of grid-connected 30kW PVIB set up on the library of Dongshin University. For a sustainable photovoltaic system in this area, the data of the PVIB system are collected and analyzed by monitoring system using LabView. PCS of the grid-connected PVIB system, also, is designed for optimal operation with characteristics suggested in this paper.

본 논문은 배터리 충방전 제어기를 가지는 독립형 태양광·풍력 복합발전시스템에 대해서 기술한다. 복합발전시스템의 주요 전력원은 일반적으로 태양전지 어레이, 풍력발전, 배터리로 구성된다. 태양광·풍력 복합발전시스템은 기상조건의 상호 보완성 때문에 풍력 또는 태양광을 단독으로 이용하는 것에 비해서 배터리 수요를 줄일 수 있으며, 자연에너지의 활용도를 높이는 장점이 있다. 제안된 복합발전시스템은 충방전 제어기가 포함되어 있어 태양전지 어레이의 최대출력에서 동작할 수 있도록 순시치 제어기로 설계하였다. 본 논문에서는 실험을 통하여 시스템의 동작특성을 검증하였다.

집광형태양광발전시스템은 태양의 고도와 방위각에 따라 에너지량 차이가 크게 나타난다. 집광형 태양광발전시스템의 태양에너지 밀도를 최대화 하기 위해서는 모듈과 태양이 법선을 유지할 수 있게 하는 추적시스템이 필요하다. 본 논문은 독립형 60[W]급 집광형태양광 발전시스템을 위하여 GPS 태양광추적시스템을 설계하였고 태양추적 장치의 위치 알고리즘은 GPS를 통해 태양의 고도와 위도 좌표값 산출 하도록 하였으며, 실제 운전을 통하여 타당성을 검토하였다.
