Integration of solar pv systems into grid: Impact assessment and solutions

The integration of Renewable Energy Resources (RES) or PV systems into

grid, with the intermittent characteristics can have several impacts on the network

operation such as stability, protection and challenges for managing Theses impacts

are more complicated for an islanded grid or weak grid. To facilitate the integration of

renewable energies into the grid, a concept of smart-grid is used. The smart grid uses

digital technology to improve reliability, flexibility, and efficiency (both economically

and energetically) of the electric system. This paper presents impacts provided by PV

systems integration into grid: voltage variations, frequency variation, voltage

unbalance Several solutions in order to reduce these impacts, to maximize the

ancillary services contributed by PV systems are proposed via different projects.

Intelligent control and energy management are developed in order to minimize

operation cost and to maximize the RES penetration rate into grid.

Integration of solar pv systems into grid: Impact assessment and solutions
ehaviour of PV systems in a short circuit condition, a LV 
distribution network is used (Fig. 27). This network is powered by a 400 kVA 
(20/0.4 kV) distribution transformer. This network comprises 2 feeders with 
underground cables of 240 mm2. Each feeder has a FD 400 A fuse. The distance 
between the customers is 10 or 20 m. The the customers are well distributed among the 
three phases. Each connection has an AD 90 A fuse. 
It is assumed that there are three 3 kWp PV systems connected on three phases to 
nodes 21, 23 and 24, respectively. The anti-islanding protection of PV systems is based 
on the voltage and frequency criterion according to DIN VDE 0126-1-1. Different types 
of short circuits (single-phase, phase-phase, three-phase) are created at the different 
points of the network on the two feeders. The behaviours of PV inverters in the event of

a short circuit are observed. In this section, we present only the behaviors of PV 
inverters in the case of a single-phase short-circuit. 
Fig. 27: LV distributed network with PV systems and protection systems

BÁO CÁO CHUNG | 47 
A single-phase short-circuit appears at t = 1.0 s on phase a at node 7. The short-
circuit current seen by the fuse FD1 reaches 7 kA (Fig 28a). This fuse melts at t = 1.41 s. 
During the short circuit, the voltage of the PV inverter connected to the faulty phase (at 
node 21) decreases to 0.52 pu (Fig. 28c). This PV inverter is disconnected 200 ms after 
the short circuit (t = 1.2 s). During the short circuit, the current of this inverter increases 
slightly but does not exceed 110% (Fig. 28d). 
Fig. 28e and Fig. 28f show the power and voltage variations of the PV inverter 
connected to the non-fault phase (phase b to node N23). This inverter maintains the 
connection during and after the fault. This is identical with the PV inverter connected on 
phase c to node N24. 
We thus show the support capacity to disturbance for the inverters on the non-
fault phases. 
Future power systems with high penetration of photovoltaic (PV) systems could 
be severely affected in a power quality disturbance, generation loss and stability 
problem if several of PV systems are tripping. Among power quality disturbances, 
voltage sag is considered as the most serious which can cause the disconnection of a 
significant amount of PV systems. These disconnections are sometimes unnecessary, 
particularly when the fault is not situated on the same feeder of PV systems (adjacent 
feeder). Therefore, this part focuses on voltage sags caused by short circuits. This work 
is to study behaviors of grid-connected PV systems facing voltage sags by taking into 
account the real urban network (MV network) protections. From simulations, 
unnecessary trip cases of PV systems are then identified. Finally, a solution by using the 
voltage-times characteristic for PV system is proposed (Fig. 29). This solution permits 
to avoid unnecessary trip of PV systems in case of a short circuit on the adjacent feeder, 
outside of PV zones. Nevertheless, in case of a short circuit in their zone, PV systems 
are disconnected. A verification of the system operation with proposed solution is also 
carried out.

VIII. STRATEGIES FOR BESS MANAGEMENT IN PHOTOVOLTAIC APPLICATIONS 
High capital investment cost for batteries constitute a major obstacle to the 
widespread deployment of battery energy storage systems (BESSs) as a tool to support 
the integration of renewable energy sources (RES) into the electricity grid. BESSs are 
already operated in commercial MW-scaled photovoltaic (PV) installations to facilitate 
power production levelling and participation in auxiliary services, such as frequency 
and voltage control. The optimization of dispatch schedules has been employed in the 
past to aid the sizing of BESS and drive down capital expenditures by limiting the 
installed battery capacity to the minimum required for the application. In this work, an 
optimized operation strategy is used to reduce replacement costs for the batteries by 
adapting the state-of-charge and power solicitation to achieve minimized aging. To this 
end, a simplified model for both calendar and cycle aging of Li-ion batteries is 
integrated into a mixed-integer linear programming algorithm. Results from a 
simulation using typical specifications for a BESS operated in a PV power plant in 
French overseas regions are presented and discussed.

IX. STABILITY IN AN ISLAND NETWORK WITH HIGH RES INTEGRATION 
In a context where renewable energies from both wind and solar origin have low 
predictability, low controllability and strong variability, their massive integration into 
power systems may cause instabilities for these grids. The use of storage energy systems 
is a promising solution for solving such problems. In the present part, we focus on 
flywheel energy storage system (FESS) associated to photovoltaic power generation 
(PV). The FESS is then connected to a grid simulated by real time simulator in order to 
test its ability for grid ancillary service: voltage, frequency regulation and PV power 
smoothing. According to the inertia of the grid, the flywheel system is more or less able 
to smooth the frequency, the voltage and the PV production. 
Two application of FESS are studied: 
 PV power smoothing with three control methods (Fig. 33), 
 Frequency control (Fig. 34). 
Results obtained for these cases shows efficiency evaluation of the proposed 
solutions. 
This is in framework of smart grid in Corsia island (France).

the PV power variation (red)

This is in framework of smart grid in Guadeloupe island, France (Fig. 35). The 
high penetration of RES into a isolated grid can provide the stability problem. 
Fig. 36 shows the frequency variations in Guadeloupe with the penetration rate of 
RES (PV) about 2, 32, 50 and 72%, respectivelly in case of short-circuit without or with 
the intelligent protection strategies. Without solution this grid is instable and the 
maximal penetration rate of RES (PV) in this grid is limited about 30%. 
In order to increase the penetration rate of RES (PV), several intelligent solutions 
for control and protection strategies are proposed. With the proposed solutions this grid 
is always stable for different penetration rates, even with 72% of RES (PV) (Figs 36 
to 38).

X. CONCLUSIONS 
The integration of variable RES (PV systems) into electrical grids is limited 
because of their intermittences, fast power variations, highly dependence on 
meteorology and low inertia. In this paper, the forecasting, the monitoring of solar PV 
power have been investigated. Impacts of PV system integration in grid operation have 
been also analyzed. Several solutions in order to reduce these impacts, to maximize the 
ancillary services contributed by PV systems have been proposed via different projects. 
Intelligent control and energy management have been developed in order to minimize 
operation cost and to maximize the RES penetration rate into grid.
