Power generation from grid-connected residential photovoltaic (PV) systems has been widely recognized worldwide as an integral component in the energy transition. However, concerns remain about whether its costs and benefits have been fairly distributed in our society.
In 2021, household PV contributed 21.6 GW of new installed capacity, accounting for 73.8 % of the new installed capacity of distributed PV. However, due to the randomness and intermittency of PV power generation, large-scale household PV grid connection has a serious impact on the safe and stable operation of the distribution network.
The results show that the configuration of energy storage for household PV can significantly reduce PV grid-connected power, improve the local consumption of PV power, promote the safe and stable operation of the power grid, reduce carbon emissions, and achieve appreciable economic benefits.
As mentioned above, large-scale PV power generation grid connection affects the power quality and safe and stable operation of the power system. After increasing the energy storage system, the proportion of PV grid connection is reduced to 35.46 %, which effectively alleviates the impact of distributed PV on power grid operation.
Both Scenario 3 and Scenario 4 are grid-connected operation of household PV. The operation mode is that the PV is self-generation and self-consumption, and the surplus PV power is connected to the power grid.
Within the first year, more than 10,000 households benefitted from the pilot. Another example of this principle is the India Ministry of New and Renewable Energy program that reduces the cost of borrowing from local banks for solar providers, thus enabling greater access to financing.
The results show that the configuration of energy storage for household PV …
