Daily Constant PV Output Power Supplying AC pumps using Batteries
Abstract
This paper presents 200 KW three phase standalone photovoltaic systems supplying pumping station consist of four pumps 40 KW rating. The system utilizes a two stage energy conversion power conditioning unit topology composed of a DC-DC boost converter and three level-three phase voltage source inverter (VSI). The Boost converter in this paper is designed to operate in continuous mode and controlled for maximum power point tracking (MPPT). The fluctuating output power of the PV array system during the day is the commonly problem in the power system. In this paper a nickel-Cadmium battery will be used to maintain the output power generated from the PV array supplying the pumps to be constant all the day under different operating conditions. The system is modeled and studied using MATLAB/Simulink
Keywords
