Grid-connected PV plant with battery storage and no self consumption


Recommended Posts

Posted

I have a grid-connected PV plant, and I want to integrate a battery storage system. There is no self-consumption involved. The battery should charge using the PV plant's production during the day, and the stored energy should be discharged to the grid during the night when there is no production. Is there an option in PVsyst to configure this setup?

Dear Vasil Janevski,

Yes indeed, in PVsyst we have 3 storage strategies and the "Peak shaving" correspond well to what you are describing.

Following youtube tutorial further explain this feature in PVsyst:

Kind regards

Hi Linda,

What if I don't want to sell in the day time? 

Peak shaving strategy only store the energy that can not be injected into the grid due to grid limitation.

Hello,

Indeed the peak shaving is not design for this exact purpose. With the peak shaving strategy you will only store the energy above the set grid limitation. Setting a lower grid limitation will allow to charge the batteries and then you can set the specific hours for when you want to discharge the batteries. Indeed the discharge of the batteries will also be limited to the set grid limitation threshold.
