Solar PV-Diesel Hybrid Systems

Integrating photovoltaics into existing diesel power systems enables reductions in fuel costs and guarantees an efficient electricity supply. PV-diesel solutions offer independence from rising diesel prices and reduce operating- and maintenance costs, especially in remote areas far from the utility grid.

Generator set system is a key component of the conventional power supply. Creates the local grid and supplies electricity to connected loads, e.g. heavy duty industrial lods for mining or processing raw materials, but also for agriculture or water desalination. Additional battery storages can compensate fluctuations in load and irradiation, providing spinning reserve and facilitating optimized diesel operation.

A Solar PV-Diesel Hybrid System combines the power output of PV arrays and the diesel generators. The control system draws power in such a way that it maximizes the load on PV and minimizes on Diesel Generators. If there are multiple generators and there is sufficient power from PV, it shuts off some of the generators completely to minimize fuel consumption. The Fuel Save Controller houses an intelligent energy management system. This Controller is a key component of the proposed Solar PV-Diesel Hybrid plant. As the link between the diesel generators, the PV system and the plant load, Fuel Save Controller will take on all the demand-based control of PV generation, depending on the load and generation profiles.

Hybrid systems can be expanded on a modular basis at any time and provide reliable system control through remote monitoring.

The solar-hybrid system is smart solution and uses potential of solar system effectively. A 100 kW Hybrid System helps to reduce emission by approximately 150 tones/year. As result, villages or Industry using a hybrid system can save thousands of liters of diesel per year and reduce CO2 emissions.
