Technical FAQs 4

What happens if a battery reaches 30% PV energy?

Once it reaches 30%, the battery will wait for surplus PV energy to charge the battery until it is fully charged. Step3: For the <Chrg&Dischrg Period> setting,The battery will only discharge during the allowed discharge time period. If the time settings for parts 1 and 2 overlap, the charging time of part 1 will take priority and be executed first.

Does a hybrid photovoltaic-battery system have an optimal charging and discharging schedule?

Abstract: This article proposes an optimal charging and discharging schedule for a hybrid photovoltaic-battery system connected in the premises of a residential customer. The scheduling strategy is formulated to minimize the electricity bill of the customer.

When should a battery be charged and discharged?

Often a battery is charged whenever resources are available and discharged whenever load occurs without going through a complete charge/discharge cycle, so a long analysis period (e.g., 1 year) may be needed to capture when the battery is completely discharged (to minimum set point) and completely charged.

What happens when a battery is discharged?

In the allowed discharge period,both the battery and PV will supply power to the load, with PV being prioritized. Once the battery discharges to the value set in **<Min SOC>**, the inverter will enter idle mode. Please note
