PROPHET provides the power estimation which will generate a cluster of PV systems in the same climatic region
PROPHET offers an innovative solution that replicates the power dynamics generated by a cluster of PV systems in the same climatic region. It is an emulator which does not need data nor hardware, not even monitorization at PV plants, it only needs the radiation data provided by the existing meteorological stations. In this way, the PV power limitations are set only a few days a year, obtaining a greater amount of PV power.
Researchers from the Technical University of Madrid and the Public University of Navarra have developed an emulator for the generated power by a cluster of PV systems located in the same climatic region.
The tool only works with the irradiance indicent at a point data, accurately replicating the power dynamics generated by the cluster of PV plants. In this way, the network robustness can be checked in terms of power and frequency without monitorization or telemetry of the PV plants which are being managed.
“The estimation done by PROPHET will enable penetrations up tu 30% of PV power in the European electric system”

“The biggest challenge is to adapt the renewable energies contribution – dependent on the meteorological conditions – to the electric system where the production and consumption balance is needed”
