Microgrid with a 3.4 kWp photovoltaic system in the Universidad Técnica de Manabí

Abstract:

The energy crisis is a problem that affects all sectors of society, a clear example is an increase in the price of electric energy. As a result of this problem, the Faculty of Mathematical Sciences, Physics and Chemistry, and especially the Electricity career, intends to look for alternatives that allow to reduce the expenses derived from the electric bill, at the same time that it is possible to reduce the energy consumption of the centralized system, favoring the saving of fuel and the reduction of the CO2 emissions to the atmosphere The traditional electrical system has been based on management that allows the energy stored by nature itself for years in the fossil fuels. The transition to a new energy model will be subject to the overcoming of certain technological barriers due to the randomness of the sources of renewable generation. The current penetration of renewable generation systems in the electricity network, especially with the developments obtained for wind and photovoltaic energy, begins to cause impacts in the electricity network, such as the variation of the magnitude of the supply voltage and the increase of the imbalance between active and reactive power between generation sources [1]. But this scheme has some technical disadvantages since large plants are generally very far from the centers of consumption and the transport of these volumes of energy implies a great infrastructure and high losses. Modern electrical power systems (SEPs) are characterized by their high complexity and constant expansion, both geographically and in their power, in parallel with the increase in the demand served by these, the loads have increased their …
