Photovoltaic Power System: Modeling, Design, and Control
ISBN: 978-1-119-28034-7
July 2017
400 pages
A practical introduction to PV power systems featuring an array of real-world examples
This book guides readers through all facets of photovoltaic (PV) power system analysis, modeling, simulation, research, design, and control. The development of this book follows the author's 15–year experience as an electrical engineer in the PV engineering sector and as an educator in academia. It features a systematic presentation; organised to facilitate smooth transitions from fundamental knowledge to advanced subjects, making it a valuable tool for guiding research in academic contexts and for fostering performance enhancements in industry. The approach for modeling and simulation is based on the system dynamics that helps readers to understand the fundamental principle behind various simulation tools.
Throughout Photovoltaic Power System: Modeling, Design, and Control the text is liberally supplemented with graphs, diagrams and calculations, simulation, and industrial examples are used to elucidate technical discussions. In addition, tutorial material—including PowerPoint slides, simulation codes, and models—are available on a companion website.
Key subject areas covered in depth include:
Photovoltaic Power System: Modeling, Design, and Control is both a useful working resource for electrical engineers in the PV power systems industry and an excellent reference for advanced level undergraduates and graduate students in courses on PV power systems.
