Study of integrated solar PV and municipal energy storage-based power generation system in residential user’s context

Abstract

Now a days, renewable energy technologies bring revolutionary changes in power systems to meetup electricity load demand to the diverse user levels (i.e. industrial, commercial and residen-tial). Moreover, off-grid PV plants have added a new dimension in energy systems specially in residential user level to serve small scale load demand. Integration of energy storage facilities is helping to bring sustainability by ensuring safe operation of energy technologies, stocking and delivering high performance power generation units to the consumer level with less interruption and fault conditions. Additionally, residential buildings are becoming futuristic energy generation facility by integrating such sustainable energy harvesting technologies. In this thesis, our primary objective is to study on Solar PV integrated building energy infrastructure with the integration of municipal energy storage facility to meet sufficient load demand in residential user level and to test the operation of such systems in different conditions. Moreover, generate optimized models and perform economics analysis for the model. Our plant model has been tested and analyzed for multiple countries aspects which covers developed countries like Finland and developing countries like Bangladesh. This thesis will cover all the necessary analysis for kW range off-grid PV and battery energy-based plants and will help to get insights before projects validation and Initialization.
