Different controller operation modes are simulated considering normal, high fluctuation and emergency conditions. When the system is grid-connected, BES regulates the fluctuated power output which ensures smooth net injected power from the PV/BES system. In islanded operation, BES system is transferred to single master operation during which the frequency and voltage of the islanded microgrid are regulated at the desired level. PSCAD/EMTDC simulation validates the proposed method and obtained favorable results on power set-point tracking strategies with very small deviations of net output power compared to the power set-point. The state-of-charge regulation scheme also very effective with SOC has been regulated between 32% and 79% range.展开更多

文摘Carbon-based perovskite solar cells have attracted much attention,due to their low cost,simple preparation process and high chemical stability.However,the devices exhibit low photoelectric conversion efficiency,owing to the presence of defects and interface impedance between the perovskite active layer and the contact interface.In order to minimize the interfacial defects and improve the charge transfer performance between the perovskite layer and the contact interface,cetyltrimethylammonium chloride(CTAC)was introduced into the lower interface of HTL-free carbon-based perovskite solar cells,because CTAC can be used as interface modification material to passivate the buried interface of perovskite and promote grain growth.It was found that CTAC can not only passivate the interface defects of perovskite,but also improve the crystalline quality of perovskite.As a result,the photovoltaic conversion efficiency of reaches 17.18%,which is 12.5%higher than that of the control group.After 20 days in air with 60%RH humidity,the cell can still maintain more than 90%of the initial efficiency,which provides a new strategy for interfacial passivation of perovskite solar cells.
文摘A mathematical approach was proposed to investigate the impact of high penetration of large-scale photovoltaic park(LPP) on small-signal stability of a power network and design of hybrid controller for these units.A systematic procedure was performed to obtain the complete model of a multi-machine power network including LPP.For damping of oscillations focusing on inter-area oscillatory modes,a hybrid controller for LPP was proposed.The performance of the suggested controller was tested using a 16-machine 5-area network.The results indicate that the proposed hybrid controller for LPP provides sufficient damping to the low-frequency modes of power system for a wide range of operating conditions.The method presented in this work effectively indentifies the impact of increased PV penetration and its controller on dynamic performance of multi-machine power network containing LPP.Simulation results demonstrate that the model presented can be used in designing of essential controllers for LPP.
文摘Renewable energies, such as solar and wind power, are increasingly being introduced as alternative energy sources on a glosbal scale toward a low-carbon society. For the next generation power network, which uses a large number of these distributed power generation sources, energy storage technologies will be indispensable. Among these technologies, battery energy storage technology is considered to be most viable. Sumitomo Electric Industries, Ltd. has developed a redox flow battery system suitable for large scale energy storage, and carried out several demonstration projects on the stabilization of renewable energy output using the redox flow battery system. This paper describes the advantages of the redox flow battery and reviews the demonstration projects.
文摘Organic-inorganic halide perovskites have been shown to be outstanding photovoltaic materials,achieving remarkably high power conversion efficiency(15%)of sunlight to electricity within the past 4 years.The controllable synthesis of organic-inorganic halide perovskites is fundamental to their applications in photovoltaic devices.Here we explore a novel strategy to prepare a typical halide peroskite CH_(3)NH_(3)PbI_(3)by transforming Pb O-Pb I2 hybrid materials.CH_(3)NH_(3)PbI_(3)thin films were deposited on glass substrates by reacting ultrasonic-assisted successive ionic layer adsorption and reaction(SILAR)-derived Pb O-Pb I2 hybrid films with CH3NH3 I vapor at 110°C.The microstructure and crystallinity of the films,together with the optical and electrical properties were characterized.Results show that CH_(3)NH_(3)PbI_(3)thin films possess perovskite crystal structure and uniform surface morphology with grain size up to 400 nm.In the visible band,CH_(3)NH_(3)PbI_(3)thin films showed low transmittance(below 10%),with a band gap of 1.58 e V.The surface resistivity of CH_(3)NH_(3)PbI_(3)thin films was as high as 1000 MΩ,indicating the dielectric nature of obtained CH_(3)NH_(3)PbI_(3)films,with a dielectric constant ofεr(100 Hz)=155 on low frequency.The current work opens an effective route toward high quality organicinorganic halide perovskite films with good crystallinity and optical properties,which make them suitable for application in photovoltaic devices,and other optical and electrical applications.
