Technical FAQs 4

Can a diesel generator be used as a photovoltaic system?

In combination, diesel generators and photovoltaic systems are very well suited to energy supply in areas with an unstable or non-existent mains supply. The additional use of solar energy reduces fuel consumption, which saves costs. Furthermore, the integration of a PV system brings a sustainable factor into the system.

What is a photovoltaic system?

This system includes solar, storage, and diesel power, with diesel generators as the main power source. Compared to TYPE A, the addition of an energy storage system allows for an increase in the capacity of the photovoltaic system.

Why should you integrate photovoltaics into diesel power systems?

Integrating photovoltaics into existing diesel power systems enables reductions in fuel costs and guarantees an efficient electricity supply. PV-diesel solutions offer independence from rising diesel prices and reduce operating- and maintenance costs, especially in remote areas far from the utility grid.

What is a solar PV-diesel hybrid system?

Additional battery storages can compensate fluctuations in load and irradiation, providing spinning reserve and facilitating optimized diesel operation. A Solar PV-Diesel Hybrid System combines the power output of PV arrays and the diesel generators.
