Enabling rising penetration and added value of photovoltaic generation by implementationPV system integration of advanced storage systems

Erigeneia项目的目标是通过开发将光伏（PV）与电池储能系统（BESS）相结合的地方和中央能源管理系统（EMS），实现光伏技术的高度渗透，并利用其在能源系统中的潜在价值。该项目将满足配电系统运营商（DSO）对即将出台的新市场法规的技术要求，充分利用光伏和BESS组合的积极影响。此外，政府亦会发展一套小时内的能源预测工具，并将其纳入电力系统，为电力系统提供更准确和可靠的运作计划。拟议的工作预计将对光伏发电的进一步渗透产生重大影响，因为现有的电网基础设施将以更有效的方式利用，通过增加托管能力，从而推迟电网的加固。通过促进光伏发电的电网友好型自用，可以避免电网拥堵问题。由于EMS将增加电力使用的可预测性，目前昂贵的电力储备将被光伏和BESS联合EMS的本地EMS控制策略所取代。此外，用户将利用提供的灵活性，以降低他们的电力成本，从新的使用时间（ToU）和动态关税政策中获益。最后，还将开发一种能够估计BESS和PV的最佳尺寸以满足产消者所有需求的通用算法。现场试验将在塞浦路斯（国内EMS）和土耳其（社区EMS）进行，并将向网络运营商提供新颖或更有效的辅助服务（例如电力平滑，电压调节）。最后，提出的解决方案的经济影响将被量化。该提案完全符合SET计划和太阳能产业倡议的目标，即在能源系统中有效整合太阳能技术。

The Erigeneia project targets to enable the high penetration of PV technology and to utilize its potential value in the energy system bydeveloping a local and central energy management system (EMS) that will combine photovoltaics (PV) with battery energy storage systems(BESS). The project will match the technical requirements imposed by the distribution system operators (DSO) with the upcoming newmarket regulations, capitalizing on the positive effects of PV and BESS combination. In addition, a tool for intra-hour energy forecasting willbe developed and integrated into the EMS to provide a more accurate and reliable operation plan for the DSO.The proposed work is expected to have significant impact on the further penetration of PV given that the existing grid infrastructure will beutilized in a more efficient way, by increasing the hosting capacity hence deferring grid reinforcement. By promoting grid-friendlyself-consumption of PV generation, grid congestion issues will be avoided. Since the EMS will increase the power usage predictability, thecurrent expensive power reserves will be replaced by the local EMS control strategies of the combined PV and BESS EMS. Furthermore, theusers will take advantage of the provided flexibility in order to lower their cost of electricity, by gaining from the new upcoming policies ofTime of Use (ToU) and dynamic tariffs. Finally, a versatile algorithm capable of estimating the optimum size of BESS and PV to meet all theneeds of prosumers will also be developed. Field trials will take place in Cyprus (domestic EMS) and Turkey (community EMS) and novel ormore effective ancillary services will be provided to the network operators (e.g. power smoothing, voltage regulation). Finally, the economicimpact of the proposed solutions will be quantified.The proposal is fully in line with the SET plan and Solar Energy Industrial Initiative objectives for effective integration of solar energytechnologies in the energy system.
