  • The floating photovoltaic system is a new concept in the renewable energy technology. That is similar to land based photovoltaic technology except floating system. So the system needs buoyant objects, mooring, ect, besides modules and supports, and that is able to withstand in water level changes and wind strength. Therefore the floating photovoltaic system is much different from land photovoltaic system. Unlike land-based photovoltaics developed on the rooftop and in the mountains of buildings, The floating photovoltaic power generation is a new concept in power generation technology in which photovoltaic modules are installed using buoyancy on the surfaces of dams and reservoirs. It is abundant enough to construct a power plant with a power generation potential of about 5% and a power generation capacity of 4,170MW, so that the land can be efficiently used without destroying the environment. In this paper, the technical standard for evaluating safety in addition to the water-state photovoltaic power generation system is not established yet, and the items to be considered for standardization of the water-state photovoltaic power generation system are summarized in this paper.

  • Since photovoltaic generating system is significantly important among renewable energy sources, photovoltaic plants are installed more than past. As a result, accidents of photovoltaic system are also increased, so the additional hardware which includes monitoring system and periodic inspection are required for safety. In addition, a photovoltaic system is installed where a person can't approach to detect a fault, so a number of devices are required to detect it. This paper proposes that drone and thermo-graphic camera are used for detecting a fault of photovoltaic plant and suggests efficiency to control a drone for detecting a photovoltaic plant.

  • Since floating facility with mooring system can be moved and rotated by wind or other environmental variables, the error in azimuthal angle must be compensated using a GPS receiver and geo-magnetic sensor. Accordingly, when an existing photovoltaic tracking algorithm is applied to a floating photovoltaic system, it is difficult to do the optimal solar tracking. In this paper, an effective azimuthal angle algorithm is develop for the photovoltaic tracking in floating condition. In order to verify the developed algorithm, the prototype of the floating photovoltaic system is manufactured and the developed algorithm is applied to the system. The algorithm shows a good tracking feasibility on the prototype.

  • This presents the equivalent circuit model of solar cell with irradiation and temperature condition. Based on solar cell model, the photovoltaic module specification of manufacturer compare with photovoltaic module simulation and is investigated by simulation results. The obtained results indicate that residual of simulation value and specification value about photovoltaic module is lower. There is considerable validity in simulation of photovoltaic module. Thus, the optimum simulation of photovoltaic module array are studied in this paper. This paper propose the sizing optimization of photovoltaic module array for stand-alone photovoltaic system. Also, the proposed stand-alone photovoltaic system is setting in special region(in seoul). This paper presents simulation characteristic of optimization output power in seoul.

  • Recently, many renewable energy generating businesses are ongoing progress due to the introduction of the RPS(Renewable Portfolio Standards) as well as the needs of environmentally friendly energy resources. Researches on photovoltaic system are actively being processed since the photovoltaic system is relatively easy to install and becomes commercialized in many domestic application areas. Furthermore, the floating photovoltaic system is likely to be installed more actively since the conventional photovoltaic system requires relatively large areas of land. Also, the floating photovoltaic system is more efficient than photovoltaic system installed in land due to the operation in lower temperature. However, safety problems such as electric shock could arise since the cable should be installed in the water. In this paper, the leakage current and the voltage rising are measured and analyzed for the case when the cables are damaged connecting the floating photovoltaic system to the grid.

  • Today, the need for alternative energy has increased due to the global environmental problems and energy depletion. In order to solve a global environmental matter and an energy issue simultaneously, the application of the renewable energies in building has been constantly demanded. therefore, we must develop new energy resources that are abundant and provide substitutes for fossil fuels and we must study the application method of the renewable energies in building. Among renewable energies, the solar energy(photovoltaic system) is clean, inexhaustible, and available everywhere in the world and is judged to have the application possibility in building. Daegu city has a plan of putting a photovoltaic system on large buildings. For instance, EXCO, exhibition and convention building, and dormitory in Kyungpook National University, Dongho elementary school, Osan building in Keimyung University, Young korea academy in Daegu, are on the process of having a photovoltaic system. Therefore a study on the performance of photovoltaic system is important for the system design and maintenance. this paper describes the first invest cost, and performance test of the 95kW utility-interactive photovoltaic power system.

  • In October 2011, a commercialized 100kW class floating photovoltaic system positive plant was installed at Hapcheon dam a multi-purpose reservoir the first time ever in the nation. Floating photovoltaic system differs in water float, mooring device and underwater cable process from land photovoltaic system. As for land and building photovoltaic power generation equipments, many installation cases and skilled experiences are available, and thus installation is not difficult. However, commercial power generation floating photovoltaic system, which is attempted for the first time in the nation, requires to be designed and installed through a series of processes like technical review and verification of data by process in comparison with similar cases. The structure of floating photovoltaic system, an equipment for float photovoltaic module and other electrical equipment, is required to withstand weather environments like wind or typhoon etc and yet not affect water quality negatively, and for implementation of this system, construction efficiency and economy etc should be considered comprehensively. In this paper, the techniques of installing floating photovoltaic structure, mooring device, underwater cable, electrical equipment and remote monitoring control system are explained. The 100kW floating PV system is operating with 15% average capacity factor.
