随着太阳能光伏技术的进步和电池板成本的降低，太阳能被认为是满足不断增长的能源需求的经济和可持续的解决方案，特别是在印度等日照水平高的国家。然而，在大规模采用分布式太阳能发电方面存在关键挑战。首先，人们担心分布式发电会违反电压法规和导致系统不稳定。其次，在为公用事业提供强大的通信基础设施以主动控制和调度分布式发电方面存在挑战。我们通过设计一个分散的控制器iPlug来解决这些挑战，该控制器涉及对太阳能容量注入电网的电压敏感回退，并受到网络文献中CSMA协议的启发。这与其他资源（如本地电池和本地需求提升资源）一起完成。iPlug功能是对新兴微逆变器技术的补充，原则上可以集成到逆变器控制或电池和家庭能源管理控制系统中。我们提出了初步的结果，从模拟为基础的评估iPlug算法，并将其与静态PV注入策略。
With advances in solar photovoltaic technology and decreasing costs of panels, solar energy is considered as an economical and sustainable solution for growing energy demands, especially in countries such as India with high insolation levels. However, key challenges exist in large scale adoption of distributed solar generation. Firstly, there are concerns related to breach of voltage regulations and system instabilities caused by distributed generation. Secondly, there are challenges in providing robust communication infrastructure for utilities to actively control and dispatch distributed generation. We address these challenges by designing a decentralised controller iPlug, which involves voltage-sensitive back-off of the level of solar capacity injection into the grid and is inspired by the CSMA protocol from Networking literature. This is done in conjunction with other resources like local batteries and local demand ramp-up resources. iPlug functions are complementary to emerging microinverter technologies and could in principle be incorporated into either the inverter controls or battery and home energy management control systems. We present preliminary results from simulation-based evaluation of iPlug algorithms and compare it with static PV injection strategies.
