    Abstract : Floating solar technology is relatively new, and it comes with its own set of challenges and opportunities. This master thesis focuses on understanding how Floating Photovoltaic (FPV) projects perform compared to Ground-Based Photovoltaic (GPV) projects, in specific weather conditions. READ MORE

  4. 3. Local voltage control in a low voltage grid with high photovoltaic penetration

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för reglerteknik

    Author : Joakim Bakklund; [2024]
    Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : This thesis examines how active power control (Volt-Watt control) and reactive power compensation (Volt-VAr control) can help limit voltage increases on the low voltage grid due to high photovoltaic (PV), installations. Due to the large increase in interest to install small scale PV-systems within residential areas the Distribution System Operator E. READ MORE

  5. 4. Estimating Photovoltaic capacity using customs data : Model development of the tool NJORD and photovoltaics' characterization and impact on the African continent

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Byggteknik och byggd miljö

    Author : Albin Åbrink; [2023]
    Keywords : Photovoltaic; Trade analysis; Development Goals; Africa;

    Abstract : Photovoltaics (PV) is one of the fastest growing power sources in the world in the last twenty years, being the most installed power source in almost half of the world's countries in 2020. Despite this, precise tracking of installations of PV does not exist in most of the world's markets due to PVs unique scalability and modularity. READ MORE

  6. 5. CO-LOCATION OF WIND AND SOLAR POWER IN SOUTHERN SWEDEN

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Michail Iakovos Dragasis; [2023]
    Keywords : Hybrid renewable energy system; Profitability; Lithium-ion battery storage system;

    Abstract : This paper examines the possibility of adding a photovoltaic(PV) power station to an already planned wind park in terms of profitability. At this time, southern Sweden’s grid is facing a number of challenges and is hurting economic development. Hybrid parks have showed to be able to tackle some of those challenges. READ MORE
