On-grid solar energy systems with storage, often referred to as grid-tied solar systems with battery storage, combine the
benefits of grid-connected solar panels with energy storage capabilities. These systems are designed to generate electricity
from solar panels, store excess energy in batteries, and also interact with the main electrical grid.
Experiments
- Solar panel characterization:
- Measuring solar radiation: Changing the inclination and azimuth of the solar panel
- Investigating the PV module response to shadow formation
- Recording the characteristics of the solar modules:
- Solar Panel Voltage-Irradiation Curve
- Solar Panel Current
- Irradiation Curve (calculating the inner resistance of the solar panel)
- Obtaining the solar panel currentvoltage curve
- Obtaining the solar panel power-voltage curve
- Measurement of the voltage and current of the photovoltaic module with overload
- Solar on-grid system:
- Measuring the electricity delivered to the mains grid
- Measuring the electricity produced by the solar panel, delivered/taken from the mains grid, and the loading of AC lamps
- Determining the efficiency of the grid connected inverter
- Investigating the response of a PV system to a mains failure
- Solar on-grid storage system:
- Measuring the generated power of a PV system and battery charging
- Using Solar Panel and Battery to supply an AC Load
