Local energy production by distributed PV at low-voltage reduces the need to extend power distribution infrastructure to transfer energy from utility technologies at high-voltage levels, and increases energy self-sufficiency for many regions, especially in southern Europe.
Distributed solar photovoltaic (PV) systems are projected to be a key contributor to future energy landscape, but are often poorly represented in energy models due to their distributed nature. They have higher costs compared to utility PV, but offer additional advantages, e.g., in terms of social acceptance.
Distributed PV reduces required reinforcement for distribution grid capacity. Distributed PV increases energy self-sufficiency for European regions. Distributed solar photovoltaic (PV) systems are projected to be a key contributor to future energy landscape, but are often poorly represented in energy models due to their distributed nature.
This work presents a review of energy storage and redistribution associated with photovoltaic energy, proposing a distributed micro-generation complex connected to the electrical power grid using energy storage systems, with an emphasis placed on the use of NaS batteries.
Fig. 5.a and b show the share of solar utility and distributed solar generation on the total annual energy generation in each European country, and each node, for scenario B. We can recognize that Southern countries have more solar, both in distributed and utility form, compared to the Northern regions.
In function of their characteristics, photovoltaic systems are adequate to be used for electrical distributed generation. It is a modular technology which permits installation conforming to demand, space availability and financial resources.
