Simulations with storage

[Joaquina]

Hello,

I have some doubts regarding the simulations with storage.

I want to simulate a 1C project, but PVSyst doesn´t allow, why this happen? 

 

Due to this problem, it is only possible to simulate storage projects with c-rates of 0.5C, 0.25C ... ?

 

Thank you

Dear Joaquina,

The warning message indicates that the Max. charging power is too high and that you should consider increasing the battery capacity or reduce the charging power (by reducing the charging power you are increasing the c-rate). This is a limit that you can change in the advanced parameters. If you have a Lead-acid storage the minimum charging/discharging rate is set to 2.5 hours. you find these parameters in the category Verification on Grid systems (#815 and #816 for Lead-acid Storage)

Kind regards
