Title
Effect Of Aggregation For Multi-Site Photovoltaic (Pv) Farms
Abstract
As the existing power grid has been evolving into smart grid, the role of renewable energy resources or distributed energy resources (DER) is becoming more important. In recent years, a large number of large-scale renewable energy farms such as photovoltaic (PV) farms have been installed worldwide and these farms provide a large amount of energy into the main grid. However, due to variability and uncertainty of renewable energies, the power grid requires strict regulations to accommodate abundant renewable energy resources. Focusing on solar energy, in this paper, we evaluate an aggregation effect of multi-site PV farms in South Korea based on 4 years' meteorological satellite images. We can expect a positive effect of PV power aggregation from multiple sites in terms of smaller power fluctuations due to any uncorrelated characteristics of solar irradiance among multiple sites placed in the distance. Furthermore, based on the evaluation results, we can find the best combination of multi-site PV farms for achieving the smallest fluctuations.
