This article will introduce energy Storage Photovoltaic Power Generation and Microgrid Simulation Application Test Scheme, including test equipment, test methods and test content.

1. Test equipment

-Photovoltaic power generation simulator

photovoltaic power generation simulator can simulate the output characteristics of actual photovoltaic cells and provide stable voltage and current output for testing photovoltaic power generation systems.

-Energy storage system

an energy storage system typically includes a battery pack, an inverter, and a battery management system (BMS). These devices need to be used in tests with photovoltaic power generation simulators and microgrid systems.

-Microgrid Simulator

the microgrid simulator is used to simulate a small power network, which can integrate multiple power sources and loads, and provide comprehensive testing capabilities for microgrid systems.

-Test instruments

includes power analyzers, oscilloscopes, voltage and current sensors to monitor and record the electrical parameters of the system.

2. Test method

-Static testing

static test is mainly used to evaluate the basic performance parameters of energy storage system and photovoltaic power generation system, including open circuit voltage, short circuit current, maximum power point and so on. Through static testing, you can understand the basic characteristics of the system under different working conditions.

-Dynamic testing

the dynamic test simulates the changes of working conditions in actual operation, including the changes of sunshine intensity, load changes, and the charging and discharging process of the energy storage system. Dynamic testing can evaluate the response and stability of the system to various changes in actual operation.

-Comprehensive test

comprehensive testing combines static testing and dynamic testing to comprehensively evaluate the overall performance and reliability of the system. Comprehensive testing usually includes long-running tests to ensure the stability of the system in long-term operation.

3. Test content

-Performance test of photovoltaic power generation system

including photovoltaic cell I-V characteristic curve test, maximum power point tracking (MPPT) performance test, efficiency test, etc. These tests can evaluate the basic performance and working efficiency of the photovoltaic power generation system.

-Energy storage system performance test

the test of the energy storage system includes the charge and discharge performance test of the battery pack, the cycle life test, and the thermal management performance test. In addition, the functionality and reliability of the battery management system (BMS) need to be tested.

-Microgrid system performance testing

microgrid system testing includes power management, load distribution, system stability and other tests. In particular, when photovoltaic power generation and energy storage systems are connected to the microgrid at the same time, it is necessary to test their ability to work together and their impact on the grid.

-System integration test

the system integration test mainly evaluates the overall performance of photovoltaic power generation, energy storage system and microgrid system. Including power quality testing, system response speed testing, fault handling capability testing.

4. Test steps

-Preparation phase

before the test starts, all test equipment needs to be calibrated and checked to ensure that it is in normal working condition. At the same time, the test parameters and working conditions are set according to the test requirements.

-Execution phase

execute the test items step by step according to the set test plan and record the test data. Special attention needs to be paid to the real-time monitoring of the equipment during the test to ensure the safety of the test.

-Data analysis

after the test, the collected data are analyzed to evaluate the performance and reliability of the system. In the process of analysis, special attention should be paid to the responsiveness and stability of the system in dynamic changes.

-Report generation

organize the test results into a report, and record the test process, test data and analysis results in detail. Test reports are key documents for evaluating system performance and reliability.

The test scheme of energy storage photovoltaic power generation and microgrid simulation application comprehensively evaluates the performance and reliability of the system through a series of scientific and reasonable test methods and steps.
