In this study, we analyze the electrical characteristics of amorphous silicon thin film photovoltaic module which are installed about 5 years ago. Four modules from PV system are extracted and measured the maximum power change ratio using solar simulator(Class A). Also, infrared camera is used to get thermal distribution characteristics of system. The external appearance change is compared with initial module by naked eye examination. Through this experiment, 31% maximum output power drop is observed. The detail description is specified as the following paper.

In this paper, a machine learning model by using a regression algorithm is proposed to estimate the power generation performance of the BIPV system. The physical model formula for estimating the generation performance and the proposed model were compared and analyzed. For the physical model formula, simple efficiency model, temperature correction model, and regressive physics model for changing an irradiance were used. As a result, when comparing the regressive physics model for changing an irradiance and the proposed model with the actual generation measured data, the respective RMSE values are 0.1497 kW, 0.0451 kW and the accuracy values are 86.44%, and 96.56%. Therefore, the proposed model implemented in this experiment can be useful in estimating power generation.

In power supply systems for urban areas, issues such as a progressive tax have escalated recently. In this regard, photovoltaic power generation, which is appraised as an alternative power generation system, is drawing attention increasingly for its high stability and applicability to existing infrastructure. This study assessed the realistic feasibility of photovoltaic power generation and also analyzed the economic benefits expected when it is linked with green roof, which is likely to promote ecological functions in urban areas, based on the Seoul solar map, RPS, and actual monitoring data. The economics analysis of 30kW photovoltaic power generation applied with the monthly average horizontal solar radiation of six grades in the Seoul solar map showed that positive NPV was up to grade 4, while grade 5 or poorer showed negative NPV and indicated that it is difficult to assure appropriate feasibility. Compared with non-afforestation, when green roof was applied, monthly average power improvement efficiency was 7.2% at highest and 3.7% at lowest based on yearly actual monitoring data. The annual average was 5.3%, and the efficiency was high relatively in summer, including September and November. As for the economic benefits expected when 30kw photovoltaic power generation is combined with green roof based on the average horizontal solar radiation of grade 1 in the Seoul solar map, SP has improved 0.2 years to 7.4 years, and EP has improved 0.5 years to 8.3 years.

태양광(PV, Photovoltaic) 시스템의 발전량은 일사량 및 기온 등 날씨 변수에 따라 변동한다. 특히 일사량 변화에 민감하게 반응하는 PV 시스템의 출력 특성은 최대 전력 점 추적(MPPT, Maximum Power Point Tracking) 제어를 통해 변화하는 기상 환경에서도 효율적이며 안정적으로 최대 전력을 생산할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 PV 시스템의 전력생산 효율 개선과 안정성을 높이기 위해 퍼지 로직 기반의 MPPT 제어 방법을 제안한다. 제안한 방법의 성능 검증을 위해, 동일 기상 조건하에서 기존의 대표적인 MPPT 제어방식인 P&O(Perturb and Observe)와 새로 제안한 퍼지 로직의 효율과 안정성을 실증적으로 비교 및 평가한다. 더욱이 하드웨어의 안정도 및 신뢰도 향상을 위해 설계한 회로를 인쇄 회로 기판(PCB, Printed Circuit Board)으로 제작하여 실험을 진행했다. 특정 기간동안 prototype으로 진행한 실험 결과를 통해, 본 논문에서 제안한 퍼지 로직 기반의 MPPT가 기존의 P&O MPPT 대비 4.4% 이상의 효율 개선과, 최대 전력 점에서 변동 폭의 39.7% 이상 감소가 확인된다.

A guard lamp system has been installed at the PV positive center, located at Gwangju in Korea. Digital environment that is represented to internet is displacing business way of industry and business achievement way with the fast speed being giving great change on life whole, improve existence business process utilizing internet and Web connection technology, information superhighway to tradition industrialist manufacture and e-transformation's propulsion that wish to maximize productivity and administration efficiency is spread vigorously. In this paper, we wish to accomplish generation equipment's heighten stability and believability through remote monitoring and control of guard lamp system. This paper describes the design of the monitoring system for the sensing data and indirect controlling of the guard lamp system. Most of the conventional monitoring systems depend on the special hardware and software. The essential design of monitoring system is to provide the convenience for the user and the portability for the system.

Low voltage ride through capability augmentation of a hybrid micro-grid system is presented in this paper which reflects enhanced reliability in the system. The control scheme involves parallel connected multiple ac-dc bidirectional converters. When the micro-grid system is subjected to a severe voltage dip by any transient fault single power converter may not be able to provide necessary reactive power to overcome the severe voltage dip. This paper discusses the control strategy of additional power converter connected in parallel with main converter to support extra reactive power to withstand the severe voltage dip. During transient fault, when the terminal voltage crosses 90% of its pre-fault value, additional converter comes into operation. With the help of additional power converter, the micro-grid system withstands the severe voltage fulfilling the grid code requirements. This multiple converter scheme provides the micro-grid system the capability of low voltage ride through which makes the system more reliable and stable.

본 논문에서는 태양과 태양전지 모듈이 법선을 이루도록 기존에 태양의 방위각 및 고도각을 제어하는 양축 추적시스템에 2개의 센서를 사용하였던 Double-sensor방식에서 1개의 센서로 방위각 및 고도각을 제어할 수 있는 One-sensor방식의 양축 추적시스템을 제안하였다. 그리고 제안한 추적시스템을 제작하여 시스템의 실제 운전을 실행하였다. 제안한 추적시스템은 1개의 센서를 이용하여 태양이 항상 법선을 이루면서 태양전지 모듈에 입사되게 제어하기 위해 방위각과 고도각을 제어하는 양축 추적시스템이다. 실험결과 가장 효율적인 운전과 불필요한 구동부의 동작을 방지하여 전력소모를 감소할 수 있었으며 고정식에 비해 본 논문에서 제안한 One-sensor방식의 양축 추적시스템이 약 23[%]의 발전효율이 증가함을 확인 할 수 있었다. 태양을 추적하여 더 많은 햇빛을 받게 하여 태양전지의 효율을 높이기 위하여 행해진 추적장치는 대형 방식에 많은 연구가 진행되어 왔다. 따라서 본 논문의 태양위치추적의 모니터링 시스템을 구축하여 지속적인 발전효율에 대한 실용화 연구를 통해 태양광발전시스템 보급에 큰 역할을 할 것이라 기대된다.

This paper presents an advanced modeling and simulation technique applied to DC/DC power electronic converters fed through renewable energy power sources. The distributed generation (DG) system at the Illinois Institute of Technology, which employs a phase-l system consisting of a photovoltaic-based power system and a phase-2 system consisting of a fuel cell based primary power source, is studied. The modeling and simulation of the DG system is done using the generalized state space averaging (GSSA) method. Furthermore, the paper compares the results achieved upon simulation of the specific GSSA models with those of popular computer aided design software simulations performed on the same system. Finally, the GSSA and CAD software simulation results are accompanied with test results achieved via experimentation on both, the PV-based phase-l system and the fuel cell based phase-2 power system.
