SPECIALS
Photovoltaic Power Systems (PVPS)
- Cells, panels and arrays
The operating principle of the most common PV cells and their manufacturing processes will be described, along with modeling, characterization and fault diagnostic methods for various types of PV panels.
– PV inverters –topologies and grid connection
Modern PV inverter topologies, with the best commercially used solutions, along with their specific modulation and control challenges will be presented and evaluated.
– PV inverters - control and grid interaction
Maximum power point tracking, including management of active power reserves, along with grid integration challenges will be discussed. Methods for increasing the PV penetration in the grid will be presented.
– PV plants - design and grid support
Design procedures, along with an example case study optimization algorithm, aiming to minimize the PV plants Levelized Cost of Energy (LCOE)
