SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR DISPATCHING MAXIMUM AVAILABLE CAPACITY FOR PHOTOVOLTAIC POWER PLANTS

摘要

Systems, apparatuses, and methods for dispatching maximum available capacity for photovoltaic (PV) power plants are described. For an embodiment, a PV panel assembly comprises a first PV panel configured to generate direct current (DC) power and an inverter molecule coupled to the first PV panel. The inverter molecule is configured to convert the DC power generated by the first PV panel into alternating current (AC) power. Moreover, the inverter molecule includes a monitoring device configured to monitor a condition of the first PV panel. The monitored condition of the first PV panel is converted into electronic data for generating or creating a first adaptive PV panel model for the first PV panel. Information derived from the first adaptive PV panel model can be communicated to a third party, such as an electric utility company or an Independent System Operator (ISO).
