Hi everyone welcome back to PV Solar Energy of course.
1

2
00:00:08,570 --> 00:00:17,770
Today I'm going to give you in this section the different types of PV system the PVsystem can be divided
2

3
00:00:17,860 --> 00:00:20,040
in two main category.
3

4
00:00:20,110 --> 00:00:30,870
The grid connected PV system and the stand alone PV system first the grid connected PV system can be
4

5
00:00:30,870 --> 00:00:40,600
divided into two categories. First category it would be without a storage system mean it is without
5

6
00:00:40,620 --> 00:00:41,870
batteries.
6

7
00:00:42,130 --> 00:00:51,550
In the next type or bimodal PV the system we are using storage system which is this case is battery
7

8
00:00:52,670 --> 00:00:53,980
the stand alone.
8

9
00:00:53,990 --> 00:00:57,950
PV system can be divided into all main categories.
9

10
00:00:59,080 --> 00:01:09,890
Hybrid category and a standalone category first stand alone or off grid category can be divided in two
10

11
00:01:09,890 --> 00:01:13,230
main category first category.
11

12
00:01:13,250 --> 00:01:15,040
It would be without battery.
12

13
00:01:16,430 --> 00:01:22,220
Like the water pump the second type is with battery.
13

14
00:01:22,430 --> 00:01:25,390
It would be for residential applications.
14

15
00:01:28,300 --> 00:01:39,170
The last type of the stand alone PV system is hybrid PV system mean we are using PV power with another
15

16
00:01:39,210 --> 00:01:40,390
type of power.
16

17
00:01:40,450 --> 00:01:48,730
It could be wind turbine, hydro turbine or diesel generator or even solar cell.
17

18
00:01:50,570 --> 00:02:02,120
Let's start with stand alone PV system on the stand alone or off grid systems work in general without
18

19
00:02:02,150 --> 00:02:13,520
the utility grid as shown in this figures it can been seen that we expect a perfect match between
19

20
00:02:13,590 --> 00:02:22,120
the supply and demand or in other word, between the PV system size and load requirement
20

21
00:02:24,320 --> 00:02:29,400
when this match is done perfectly for a single load.
21

22
00:02:29,570 --> 00:02:37,630
The PV system in this case can be called a direct Coupled PV system and very minimal
22

23
00:02:38,600 --> 00:02:42,610
components are needed without the need storage.
23

24
00:02:43,620 --> 00:02:53,690
Like battery another type of stand alone requires the storage system to allows excess energy to be stored
24

25
00:02:53,750 --> 00:02:56,350
when it isn't needed
25

26
00:02:56,420 --> 00:03:02,080
by the load and can later be drawn when the sun isn't available.
26

27
00:03:02,500 --> 00:03:13,170
This type can be connected directly to DC load or AC loads through an additional power component called inverter.
27

28
00:03:13,390 --> 00:03:16,120
We already describe in the last section
28

29
00:03:22,170 --> 00:03:25,300
the other common type of stand alone system.
29

30
00:03:25,300 --> 00:03:35,540
It is a hybrid PV power as shown in this figure which uses other energy source in parallel to
30

31
00:03:35,870 --> 00:03:38,280
the PV array to supply the loads
31

32
00:03:39,640 --> 00:03:49,180
This energy source can be wind turbine, hydro Turbine, diesel generator or even fuel cell. Hybrid 
32

33
00:03:49,220 --> 00:03:53,460
PV system can also use battery for energy storage
33

34
00:03:57,240 --> 00:03:58,930
the grid connected system.
34

35
00:03:58,950 --> 00:04:05,640
This type of configuration is the most common type for application where the clients want to
35

36
00:04:05,640 --> 00:04:08,360
save energy on their utility bill.
36

37
00:04:09,330 --> 00:04:21,050
And while the utility grid exists for use when the PV array  is not generating any energy. The PV array
37

38
00:04:21,060 --> 00:04:27,700
can be directly coupled to the grid without any storage system.
38

39
00:04:27,720 --> 00:04:38,580
It's called utility interactive PV system or grid tied PV system as shown in this figure.
39

40
00:04:41,550 --> 00:04:51,900
Or in other case it can store the excess energy into a battery banks for later use and in this case
40

41
00:04:52,320 --> 00:05:01,190
it's called bimodal PV system or battery backup PV system as shown in this figure.
41

42
00:05:01,190 --> 00:05:11,010
We are using battery for energy storage so we can summarize that we had two main categories.
42

43
00:05:11,030 --> 00:05:14,490
First category is the grid connected
43

44
00:05:14,600 --> 00:05:20,060
The second category is a stand alone in the Next section and is the last one.
44

45
00:05:20,480 --> 00:05:35,310
We are going to form a complete calculation for PV system sizing for stand alone system so see you in
45

46
00:05:35,340 --> 00:05:38,560
the final project.
46

47
00:05:38,660 --> 00:05:39,170
See you.
