Optimization of the energy lost in the current limitation mode of the In grid-connected photovoltaic systems: a case study of the PV installation of the Mohammed 6 polytechnic campus of Rabat

Abstract

In the framework of the reduction of the electric bill as well as the optimization of the carbon footprint of the Mohammed 6 Polytechnic University, we opted for the use of green energy and in particular the photovoltaic installed on the roof with self-consumption by injecting the produced energy in the network, but the injection of the excess of the produced energy is not yet authorized in Morocco, for that the on-grid inverter functions in limitation mode to limit the injection of a excess of the produced energy. The objective of this study is to analyze the amount of energy lost in the limitation, and to propose intelligent solutions based on IOT to exploit the totality of the energy produced by using thermal storage.
