Simulation of heterogeneous PV systems and storage in self-consumption scenarios

Lecture offered interactively  to any interested registered participant from Dec 30^th 2017  to Jan 15^th 2018.
Speaker offers  the opportunity to any interested  registered participant to  interact during indicated period. Please contact  by  email

There are a large number of software programs currently available to simulate various solar cell technologies at processing stages from material modelling to complete systems. CHEETAH KEP has already offered by LNEG  UPM and IFE a series of webinars focussed in introducing modelling tools applied to PV technology.

This  webinar complements other webinars by going through a couple of examples to deepen in the modeling of heterogeneous PV systems and use of storage in PV systems under self-consumption schemes.

The structure of both examples proposed by lecture 1 and lecture 2 are very similar:

• firstly, the problem to be simulated will be introduced
• in second place, a presentation of the models used to modelling the specific categories of PV application is proposed
• finally an example as case study or practical case is showned

The webinar presentations address:

• Modeling heterogeneous PV systems: Simulation of Distributed Maximum Power Point Tracking (DMPPT) topologies. Simulation of performance in static regime of DMPPT topologies in order to analyze their capability to reduce mismatching losses as a function of system design parameters. 
• Simulation of PV storage systems for self-consumption. Long-term simulation of PV storage systems for self-consumption in order to analyze their profitability as a function of main design parameters and different energy management strategies.  

Both webinars are offered by
Ricardo Alonso, TECNALIA
head of Energy Conversion and Management for PV

A	Introduction: to CHEETAH Project , CHEETAH webinar and CHEETAH PVirtual Academy	ROMÁN Eduardo
More than 50  webinars have been organized by CHEETAH KEP platform since January 2014 with more than, 1200 “different” users of whom: Around 900 registered to CHEETAH KEP- Knowledge Exchange Platform More that 2000 registration to participate “live” to the events Hundreds and hundreds accessing by streaming CHEETAH webinar has been as great success, and we have  enriched it by two very interesting options  very useful to improve "free" access to the learning and to foster knowledge exchange: CHEETAH nano-MOOCs «learning PV at CHEETAH speed» CHEETAH «PVirtual Academy » An excellent presentation of CHEETAH nano-MOOC was offered by prof. Carlos del Cañizo . Any interested  web user can access it  by the  event web page CHEETAH nano-MOOC-1 Today dr. Eduardo Roman, TECNALIA and dr. Franco ROCA, ENEA  present the rational of  CHEETAH «PVirtual Academy » and the first of this series titled "Modelling PV: from conversion Technologies to Systems" ROMÁN Eduardo Introduction (FLV video) Introduction (Slides) PV Technologies : Education & training ; Material and Device Modelling ; PV RTD Networks, coordination of research efforts, strategy and PV RTD projects management
