摘要： A photovoltaic power generation system includes a plurality of photovoltaic modules, a plurality of optimizers, and an inverter. Each optimizer is connected to at least one photovoltaic module, and output ends of the plurality of optimizers are connected in series to form a string and then connected to the inverter. The optimizer includes a conversion unit, and a control unit configured to control the conversion unit. The optimizer further includes an auxiliary power source, an energy storage unit, and a first unidirectional conduction unit that are connected between the conversion unit and the control unit. The control unit is configured to perform IV curve scanning for each voltage segment, where the voltage segments are obtained by segmenting a range of an output voltage of a photovoltaic module corresponding to the optimizer from an open-circuit voltage to a preset minimum voltage, and at least two voltage segments are obtained through division.

摘要： A motorized window treatment may be powered (e.g., entirely powered) from solar energy. The motorized window treatment may comprise a roller tube, a covering material extending from the roller tube to a bottom bar, and a motor drive unit configured to rotate the roller tube for adjusting a position of the covering material. The bottom bar may comprise at least one solar cell and an energy storage element electrically coupled to the solar cell. The motorized window treatment may comprise a dock, which may have a base portion electrically coupled the energy storage element of the motor drive unit. The bottom bar may be positioned adjacent to the base portion when the covering material is in a raised position, such that the energy storage element of the bottom bar may discharge through the base portion into an energy storage element of the motor drive unit.

摘要： Methods for controlling an integrated renewable energy source (RES) and energy storage system (ESS) of a RES-ESS facility having a point of grid interconnect (POGI) limit are provided. A forecast for energy production of the RES as well as a state of charge (SOC) schedule are used to calculate a SOC target-based POGI cap that is less than the POGI limit, with the SOC target-based POGI cap representing as low a peak power output value as possible while still ensuring satisfaction of the SOC schedule. The forecasted RES production, SOC schedule, and SOC target-based POGI cap are used to generate a time-varying charge/discharge control signal for the ESS that ensures the SOC schedule is satisfied.
