PV power generation systems can be categorized into two main types: standalone PV systems and grid-connected PV systems. Grid-connected PV systems consist of a PV array, converter, EMS, and other components. A typical distributed network of PV power plants is shown in Fig. 6. An SCADA system can be employed to be a subsystem of EMS in PV power plants.
The majority of photovoltaic power generation applications are remote, off-grid applications. These include communication satellites, terrestrial communication sites, remote homes and villages, and water pumps. These are sometimes hybrid systems that include an engine-driven generator to charge batteries when solar power is insufficient.
Solar power is the conversion of sunlight into electricity, either directly using photovoltaic (PV), or indirectly using concentrated solar power (CSP). The research has been underway since very beginning for the development of an affordable, in-exhaustive and clean solar energy technology for longer term benefits.
Photovoltaic power generation has been most useful in remote applications with small power requirements where the cost of running distribution lines was not feasible. As PV power becomes more affordable, the use of photovoltaics for grid-connected applications is increasing.
This paper reviews the progress made in solar power generation by PV technology. Performance of solar PV array is strongly dependent on operating conditions. Manufacturing cost of solar power is still high as compared to conventional power.
Photovoltaic power generation directly converts optical energy into power. The excess energy, if any, can be stored using batteries, but the costs for this are far greater than they are for solar-concentrating power generation, which uses thermal storage instead.
