Regulation of energy
Regulation of energy
(OP)
I need to regulate the energy produced by photovoltaic panels but not convert the voltage.
The DC voltage data are:
Vco = 315 v
How I can do?
thanks

RE: Regulation of energy
Solar energy is produced according to area of cells, efficiency and incident light. Regulation might be accomplished in a classical manner by, for example, orienting the cells away from the incoming light, or directly shading the cells, but that produces other costs and troubles, so
.. I think this would be most easily done in these cases, not by regulation, but by diverting whatever extra power is produced to an artificial load, such as heating water, or a room air heater, running a vent fan blowing into open air, or pumping water into some kind of a reservoir. Water stored in a high reservoir could be used in turn through a hydroturbine to generate electricity at night... for example. An artificial load using heat is pretty simple, as not worries are created when only a little extra power is available so you don't have to worry about low rpm on a fan motor, or pump in those cases.

RE: Regulation of energy
How I can get the load does not absorb energy in the moments that I did not exceed the limits?

Or,
Monitor the voltage from the cells. When that sees a high value, set it to trigger a relay and turn on the water heater and turn off when it goes low again.
