  • Solar generation method and system
    Patent number: 8982590
    Abstract: The invention describes a solar generation method by means of a system (1) comprising a set of solar cells (2) connected to an inverter (4) that transmits the energy generated to an electrical network (6), which comprises controlling the active and reactive power that the system (1) transmits to the electrical network (6) by controlling the voltage (Vcell) of the cells (2) and the output current (Iinv) of the inverter (4), such that: in a first mode of operation, the voltage (Vcell) of the cells (2) provides the maximum active power in accordance with the operating conditions; and, in a second mode of operation, the voltage (Vcell) in the cells (2) is different from the voltage that provides the maximum active power, generating an active power that is lower than the maximum, in order to optimise the integration of the solar generation system (1) into the electrical network (6).
    Type: Grant
