We see that, for the system examined, very little clipping occurs at an inverter loading ratio of 1.25, but the share of lost generation climbs to 16% for an ILR of 2.0. These clipping losses reduce the annual net capacity factor, calculated in terms of DC nameplate capacity, from 14.9% to 12.4%.
Energy storage can be used to shift the peak generation from the PV system to be used when the demand requires it, as shown in Figure 3. Excess energy can be stored during peak PV generation. This allows for the distribution of this energy when the PV system is not generating adequate power, or not generating at all.
Energy Storage is essential for further development of renewable and decentral energy generation. The application can be categorized under two segments: before the meter and behind the meter. We provide easy-to-use products out of one hand to design efficient power conversion and battery management systems.
