In addition, considering its medium cyclability requirement, the most recomended technologies would be the ones based on flow and Lithium-Ion batteries. The way to interconnect energy storage within the large scale photovoltaic power plant is an important feature that can affect the price of the overall system.
As shown, large scale PV power plants have several generation units (generation unit = PV array + converter). But from the transmission system operator viewpoint, it is a single generator connected to the point of common coupling (PCC). Hence, the power delivered to the grid and the grid code fulfilment is checked at the PCC.
Li-ion and flow batteries can also provide market oriented services. The best location of the storage should be considered and depends on the service. Energy storage can play an essential role in large scale photovoltaic power plants for complying with the current and future standards (grid codes) or for providing market oriented services.
Example of a typical large scale PV plant layout. A set of PV arrays are connected to collection grid, which is interconnected to the external network at te PCC. The compliance of grid service is evaluated at the PCC. So, a central controller monitors the power exchange at this point and coordinate all the PV inverters.
Defining a Solar Power Plant A solar power plant is a facility that converts sunlight into electricity using photovoltaic (PV) panels or concentrated solar power (CSP) systems. PV panels directly convert sunlight into electricity using semiconducting materials.
