Modelling and study of energy storage devices for photovoltaic lighting

Abstract

The electricity production via these sources of energy, offers a bigger safety of supply to the consumers while respecting the environment. For that reason, the principal objective of this paper is to study and control the photovoltaic lighting energy storage system. We presented the study of the whole PV system such as solar panels, DC chopper, batteries with account of all conditions of the sites of installation (period of sunshine and temperature). This study analyzed the integration of a photovoltaic power plant, super capacitor energy storage system, and lightning system. Our approach of sizing is based on the modeling of various components describing the functioning of every part of the installation among others. We can mention the production, the consumption and the storage of energy through solar battery.
