I need to know what is the necessary studies and imoprtant requerments which should be avilable in order to get clear idea about how much power from solar energy can be utlized in grid and the right places of these plants
Dear Dr. Salem,
By connecting a PV generator to the grid it must be licensed from the grid operators. There are routine safety precautions that must be realized to grantee the safety of the two connected stations.
The main other safety requirement is to detect the islanding and disconnect the PV generators. This is carried out by the PV station.
There is also other conditions imposed on the delivered waveform to the utility: It must be as pure sine wave as possible with very small harmonic content which is also stated in the agreement with the operators of the main grid. The generated voltage must be coherent with the grid.
Best wishes
I would like to suggest to read the paper included in www.leonics.com/support/article2_12j/articles2_12j_en.php
According to Richardson the following are the main steps to be followed to install a solar park
Step 1. Begin by contacting the planning department to determine permitting requirements. This is really crucial since without building permits you cannot install the solar energy farm. Unless you really complete that step, the project cannot move forward.
Step 2. Check to make sure the land to be used is not in a 100 year flood plain. This is a really important step which will need full attention and concentration.
Step 3. Contact the local utility to determine what type of power lines are running adjacent to the land to be used. The principal reason is to understand if the power lines are suitable for a solar energy farm interconnection. Another essential reason would be to begin the process of determining the available power line capacity.
Step 4. Ask the utility that provides power to the land you want to use about what programs are in place to purchase power from the solar energy farm. Some states have feed-in-tariffs which describe how a solar energy project can connect to the power grid and what price will be paid for the power.
