Application of energy storage elements on a PV system in the smart grid context

The use of renewable resources, such as solar energy, in distributed generation can bring instabilities to the system due to fluctuations in power output caused by variations or bad weather. In order to reduce the impacts caused by solar panels (PV's), the application of intelligent networks is feasible to control the distributed generation. Inserting storage energy elements in PV's stabilizes the energy produced by the panel, very sensitive to temperature and solar irradiation. In this context, we developed a computational model of 100 kW photovoltaic systems connected to the network with storage elements for the uniform supply of power, which has a load control strategy and battery discharge, standardizing the power delivery network Therefore, it was verified the importance of smart grids in the control of power flow.
