While cost of energy is a function primarily of system performance and life-cycle cost, the value of the energy depends on many factors, such as when it is available and the reliability of the energy. Some of the elements that factor into the value of a Solar Energy Grid Integration System are described in this section.
power plant with thermal energy storageIn the two-tank molten system a heat exchanger is located between the two tanks with the HTF flowing on one side of the exchanger and the storage medium (molten salt) on the other side. During the energy storage cycle, some of the HTF from the solar is diverted to this exchanger where
The inverter performs this conversion. Charge controller : In off grid solar systems with energy storage , a charge controller is used to regulate the charging and discharging of the batteries .It prevents overcharging and excessive discharging , extending the life span of the batteries .
To mitigate these impacts, changes are likely to be made to utility/PV system interface requirements and to utility rate structures, which in turn may alter the value of these systems. The PV system and the inverter are connected to the grid in parallel with the load. The load is served whenever the grid is available.
Although many different energy storage devices, such as systems using batteries, flywheels, or compressed air, to be used in conjunction with solar photovoltaics and wind energy have been proposed, none of these systems can store large amounts of energy at reasonable costs or efficiencies.
