The integration of battery energy storage systems (BESS) with renewable energy is a potential solution to address the disadvantages of renewable energy systems, which is irregular and intermittent power. In particular, residential BESS is advancing in numerous countries. The residential BESS connected to the photovoltaic system (PV) can store the PV power in the battery through charging, and supply the PV power, which was stored in the battery, to the load through discharging when there is no PV power. Therefore, the utilization of residential BESS with PV reduces the daily electric power consumption and the electricity bills that households have to charge. However, it is understood that there is no case of installing and using residential BESS in Korea yet. Most residential houses in Korea are apartment houses, and thus residential BESS can be used with balcony PV. This paper presents operation modes of residential BESS with balcony PV for apartment houses. The BESS capacity was estimated by considering the balcony PV capacity, which can be installed in households, and power consumption. The applicability of the residential BESS was analyzed through performance and economics evaluation under current and various conditions. The operation modes of BESS were divided into four types according to PV power supply priority and battery charging source, and a test took place in a demonstration house. The risk of fully discharging the battery has been discovered when PV power is first charged to the battery or when only PV power is charged with the battery. As a result, preferential charging of the battery with PV power and then with PV and grid power was found to be the most optimal operation mode. In addition, additional functions were proposed for residential BESS in apartment households. The results will contribute to effective application of residential BESS with balcony PV in the near future.

The issues of increasing the efficiency of a hybrid photovoltaic system with a storage battery for a local object by improving energy management by forecasting with simulation of energy processes in the system are considered. It is proposed to combine the functions of ensuring the auxiliary needs of the object with the planned generation of energy to the grid for the day ahead during peak hours. In the absence of generation to the grid in the case of sufficient energy from the photovoltaic and storage batteries, the system operates in an autonomous mode. To reduce energy consumption from the network, it is proposed to switch to work with the grid with predicting the degree of battery charge and correcting the load power when the voltage decreases within acceptable limits. To study the efficiency of energy management according to the forecast, simulation modeling of energy processes in the daily cycle was used. The developed model with a block for predicting the degree of battery charge allows you to investigate the operation of the system under various weather conditions with an estimate of the cost of paying for electricity from the grid at multi- zone billing. In this case, the archived data of the forecast of the generation of a photovoltaic battery from open web resources were used. The simulation results confirm the efficiency of the proposed solutions and the possibility of reducing costs even in the absence of generation to the grid. The solutions obtained are the basis for the design of software control complexes for photovoltaic systems with batteries with improved energy efficiency.

The principles for the implementation of control and redistribution of energy in a photovoltaic system with a storage battery for a local object connected to a grid with multi-zone tariffication have been improved, with the exclusion of generating electricity to the grid. There is a synthesis of the structure of the control system and the control algorithm based on the analysis of processes in electrical circuits using computer modeling to substantiate the system parameters and check the proposed solutions. The possibility of ensuring the normal functioning of a local object for a possible violation of the quality of electricity during the most loaded peak hours and most of the daytime during the autonomous operation of the system is shown. Relationships are obtained for determining the values of the input voltage of the inverter, the inductance of the reactor and the PWM frequency when the inverter is operating in the active rectifier mode with the possibility of reducing the PWM frequency in the autonomous mode with a decrease in energy losses in the switches and an increase in efficiency. The structure of the control system has been improved to ensure that the battery operates in the active zone of charging characteristics in an autonomous mode and switching the load to the grid when the inverter charges the battery in the active rectifier mode. The simulation model of energy processes in the system has been improved, taking into account the charging and discharging characteristics of the battery. It has been established that the lowest costs for electricity consumed from the network are achieved at maximum loads during peak hours, the ratio of the capacities of photoelectric and storage batteries is justified. The performance of the proposed solutions is confirmed by modeling in Matlab and on an experimental setup based on a standard hybrid inverter. The solutions obtained are the basis for the design of new and modernization of existing photoelectric systems of local objects, including the use of software and hardware control systems.
