Abstract

This study proposes the practical power management of integrated system with photovoltaic (PV) and energy storage system (ESS) to solve the line congestion and voltage problems in a distribution system while considering the electricity price and state of charge (SOC) of ESS. In addition, the proper power management of PV/ESS integrated system (PEIS) enables to increase the hosting capacity of renewable energies in a distribution system and to maximize the profit of independent power producer (IPP). In this study, the real power management of PEIS of 100 kW is implemented in practice and tested with the actual measurements for 3 days. The results show that the proposed method deals with the line congestion problem effectively and efficiently while increasing the profit of IPP by 11%. In particular, the reactive power control based on the international electrotechnical commission (IEC) standard, IEC 61850-90-7 is applied to the PEIS, and it can successfully mitigate the variations of voltage in a distribution system.
