Solar Photovoltaics Engineering. A Power Quality Analysis Using Matlab Simulation Case Studies

The book delves into the rising significance of solar Photovoltaic (PV) technology as a viable alternative to fossil fuels, highlighting its potential to significantly contribute to electricity generation. It addresses the challenges of Power Quality (PQ) that arise when integrating PV systems into traditional electrical distribution networks. Key PQ characteristics, including voltage levels, frequency, power factor, and Total Harmonic Distortion (THD), are examined, emphasizing the impact of solar PV generators on the behavior of power flows in these systems.
