Abstract
Description
Technical field
[0001] The present invention relates to a decentralized power generation system including a plurality of decentralized power generation units. The invention also relates to a method of operating such a decentralized power generation system. Background technique
[0002] A decentralized power generation system in the form of a photovoltaic (PV) power plant is known, for example.
[0003] Photoelectric power is one of the most promising energy sources for renewable energy. In PV power plants, PV cells generate direct current, thereby generating a low direct current voltage of less than 1V in each cell. Therefore, multiple PV cells are usually assembled in a PV module. According to the implementation, such a PV module may have an output voltage of several tens of volts and provide power of 10W to 150W.
[0004] In some applications, for example, in a PV power plant used to feed the generated current into a utility power system, the DC provided by the PV module is fur...
