Solutions For Grid-Connected Detection Of New Energy Power Generation Equipment
2024-12-22

In recent years, with the global emphasis on renewable energy and the continuous advancement of technology, the new energy industry is developing at an unprecedented speed. As an important part of new energy, the stability and safety of distributed power generation systems such as wind power and solar power are directly related to the operating efficiency and reliability of the entire system. As the scale of grid connection continues to expand, higher requirements are also placed on the safe and stable operation of the power grid. These not only affect the stability of the power system, but also bring many confusions and challenges to new energy equipment manufacturers and users.

 

In this context, manufacturers and users of new energy power generation equipment are generally concerned about the performance of equipment in complex power grid environments. For example, the intermittent and volatile nature of new energy power generation leads to instability in grid voltage and frequency, which can easily lead to islanding effects, threatening grid safety and equipment life; when grid voltage fluctuates significantly, high and low voltage ride-through capabilities are insufficient, and new energy power generation equipment may be disconnected from the grid, affecting the continuity of power supply. The lack of accurate and efficient detection methods and equipment makes it difficult to comprehensively evaluate and optimize the performance of new energy power generation equipment.

 

Therefore, with the introduction of IEC62116 "Anti-islanding test method for inverters for photovoltaic grid-connected systems", higher requirements have been put forward for the testing and inspection of grid-connected inverter products. In response to this technical demand of the new energy industry, Qingdao Sunwin Technologies Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "Sunwin") independently developed an anti-islanding test platform. As a professional boutique in the field of power supply testing in China, it strictly follows the relevant requirements of IEC62116 and provides a one-stop solution for factory testing and type testing of grid-connected inverter products. The platform integrates high-precision testing functions and intelligent control systems, which can simulate the occurrence of islanding effects to achieve comprehensive testing of inverters in complex working environments.

Intuitive harmonic analysis: The host is equipped with voltage harmonic and current harmonic detection functions, which can intuitively display the harmonic content in the form of a bar graph to help users quickly identify and solve problems.

 

Intelligent control: As a fully automatic detection platform, the RLC anti-islanding load realizes automatic adjustment and optimization of key parameters such as quality factor through software, which greatly improves the detection efficiency and accuracy and avoids human detection errors.

 

Application scenarios:

1. Photovoltaic inverter production test: During the production process of photovoltaic inverters, the RLC anti-islanding test platform is used to verify the anti-islanding protection function of the product to ensure that the product meets the grid connection requirements.

2. Energy storage inverter test: As an important part of the smart grid, the anti-islanding protection capability of the energy storage inverter is equally important. The RLC anti-islanding test platform can be used for type testing and factory testing of energy storage inverters.

3. Scientific research and educational institutions: Scientific research institutions and educational institutions can use this platform to conduct research and teaching experiments on new energy power generation technology to improve scientific research level and teaching quality.

 

In terms of the safety and stability of new energy grid connection, Sunwin strictly follows the standard requirements of GB/T 36995-2018 "Test Procedure for Fault Voltage Ride-Through Capability of Wind Turbines", GB/T 31365-2015 "Test Procedure for Photovoltaic Power Station Access to the Grid" and the National Energy Administration NB/T 31111-2017 "Test Procedure for High Voltage Ride-Through of Wind Turbines", and launched a high and low voltage ride-through detection platform to provide a scientific solution for new energy power generation grid connection detection.
