Distributed photovoltaic (PV) power generation refers to the distribution of PV power generation systems in different locations to meet local electricity demand by converting solar energy into electrical energy. Unlike traditional centralized PV power plants, distributed PV power generation systems are installed on building rooftops, facades, parking sheds, farmland, and other locations, allowing electricity to be supplied to users in need at close range, reducing transmission losses and grid pressure.
The application process for a distributed photovoltaic power generation project may include the following steps:
1. Resource Assessment and Feasibility Analysis: Conduct a solar energy resource assessment of the target area to determine the feasibility of the photovoltaic power generation project. The assessment includes aspects such as solar radiation, building suitability, and grid connection conditions.
2. Project Planning and Design: Based on the feasibility analysis results, develop project planning and design schemes. This includes determining the photovoltaic power generation system capacity, component layout, and battery energy storage system (if applicable). Ensure the project plan complies with regulatory requirements, environmental standards, and technical requirements.
3. Relevant Permits and Approvals: Apply for and obtain the necessary permits and approvals for the project in accordance with local government regulations. This may involve land use permits, grid connection permits, environmental impact assessments, etc.
4. Equipment Procurement and Construction: Based on the project plan and design scheme, procure the required solar photovoltaic modules, inverters, energy storage equipment, etc., and entrust a professional construction team to carry out equipment installation, wiring and commissioning.
5. Grid Connection and Grid Connection Approval: After the installation of the photovoltaic power generation system is completed, apply for grid connection and grid connection approval to ensure the normal connection and operation of the system with the grid.
6. Operation and Monitoring: Configure an energy management system and data monitoring devices to ensure the normal operation and performance monitoring of the photovoltaic power generation system. Develop operation and maintenance plans and set operating parameters as needed, and conduct regular inspections and maintenance of the equipment.
7. Subsidies and policy support: Understand local solar energy policies and subsidy policies, apply for and obtain relevant support and subsidies.
8. Operations Management and Marketing: Manage power generation and consumption data, and conduct energy settlement and reporting. Consider selling surplus electricity to power companies or other users.
