摘要: A method may include obtaining irradiance data at a first time and a second time from sensors, determining whether one or more solar modules of a plurality of networked power plants will be covered by a shadow or shade at a third time based on the irradiance data, and generating, based on the determination, a power output prediction for each power plant of the networked power plants at the third time. The method may further include receiving power delivery profiles for first and second loads, adjusting a power output of one or more power plants of the networked power plants based at least in part on the power output prediction and the power delivery profiles for the first and second loads, and allocating a combined power output of the power plants to the first and second loads based on first and second load reliability thresholds.

摘要: The present disclosure provides systems and methods for managing electrical energy generated by a renewable microgrid. One or more processors of a system may store priorities for one or more consumer loads; forecast an amount of available electrical energy for a time period; allocate a first electrical energy amount to a first consumer load to a first energy limit for the time period; determine more electrical energy is forecast to be available from the RES or the ESS for the time period; identify a second consumer load of the one or more consumer loads; allocate a second electrical energy amount to the second consumer load for the time period; and direct electrical energy from the RES or the ESS to the first and second consumer loads according to the allocations.

摘要: The present disclosure provides systems and methods for improved bifacial solar modeling. A method may comprise measuring an albedo of a surface on which an array of bifacial solar modules is disposed and setting an albedo parameter of a bifacial gain model. The method may further comprise measuring a backside irradiance of the array and setting a backside irradiance parameter. The method may further comprise setting a shed transparency parameter using the measured backside irradiance and a geometric model of the array. The method may further comprise setting a rear shading parameter using a shading model of the array. The method may further comprise computing an expected bifacial gain of the array. The method may further comprise determining an actual bifacial gain of the array. The method may further comprise setting a rear mismatch parameter to minimize a loss function of the expected bifacial gain and the actual bifacial gain.

摘要: A method for delivering power to a grid. The method may include receiving a prediction of power generation for a renewable energy source (RES), receiving power level requirements of the grid, and receiving length of power delivery requirements of the grid. The method may further include determining a power delivery limit based on the prediction of power generation, the power level requirements, and the length of power delivery requirements. The method may further include delivering power to the grid according to the power delivery limit from the RES and an energy storage system (ESS) electrically coupled to the RES.

摘要: A counter-solar power plant may include a controller configured to execute instructions stored in a memory, the instructions including operations to receive data associated with power outputs of a plurality of legacy solar-only resources (LSORs), determine an estimated power output of the plurality of LSORs based on the received data, obtain a target power delivery profile of the plurality of LSORs, the target power delivery profile including a plurality of target power outputs, determine an output of a CSPP renewable energy system (RES) and a charge/discharge of a CSPP energy storage system (ESS) such that a combined output of the CSPP and the estimated power output of the plurality of LSORs satisfies at least one of the plurality of target power outputs of the target power delivery profile, and control the CSPP RES and CSPP ESS according to the determined CSPP RES output and CSPP ESS charge/discharge.

摘要: An REPP may include a renewable energy source (RES), a first meter associated with a first load, a second meter associated with a second load, a first ESS electrically coupled to the RES and the first meter, a second ESS electrically coupled to the RES and the first meter through a switch, and a controller configured to set a first charge/discharge for the first ESS and a second charge/discharge for the second ESS such that the REPP delivers power to the first load longer than the RES produces power, in response to a trigger condition, actuate the switch such that the second ESS is electrically coupled to the second meter, and set a fourth charge/discharge for the second ESS such that the second ESS maintains a portion of its charge in reserve for the second load.

摘要: An add-on renewable power plant (ARPP) may include a renewable energy source (RES) connected to a legacy renewable power plant (LRPP) interconnection infrastructure, where an output capacity of the RES is sized based on an LRPP transmission capacity and an LRPP power output profile, and an energy storage system (ESS) connected to the LRPP interconnection infrastructure, where a storage capacity of the ESS is sized based on the LRPP transmission capacity and the LRPP power output profile. The ARPP may also include a controller configured to control an ARPP output by controlling an RES output and an ESS charge/discharge such that a variability of an ARPP-LRPP combined power output has a lower variability than a variability of an LRPP output and control the ARPP output such that the ARPP-LRPP combined power output does not exceed a transmission capacity of the LRPP interconnection infrastructure.
