Solar Hybrid Systems

02/08/2011 3:56 AM

I am keen in learning how hybrid systems work and how are they designed. Especially the Automatic transfer switch (ATS) part. For eg: in systems designed to work in 60% solar and 40% on grid the ATS does the switching. Any suggestions or advices on how to design those systems or references. Appreciate your help!

Recently I carried out a feasibility study to use solar energy based hybrid a.c system in a remotely located health care units in Oman.Normally the entire requirement of power of the hospital is drawn from solar-based power plant. In the night and during emergency time national grid power will be used. All these will be properly controlled through PLC panel. If you need the full version of the report please send me mail I Will send it.

In the systems I set up there is no switching. If the load demand exceeds the capacity of the batteries/solar the inverter draws the balance from the grid. The inverter uses the grid as an available input source. On the inverters I use (outback) the amount it will draw and how low the DC system voltage will go is all programmable.
