Abstract

In this paper are considered two fundamental problems which occur in connection of photovoltaic power plant on distributed network. It is analyzed the problem of power variability and the problem of “Duck curve”. First, it is shown the theoretical introduction about both problems and then proposes strategies for their suppression. In the second part of the work it was analyzed the impact of power plant connection on distributed network. This research is being conducted on test network. The mathematical model for analyzing was developed in the C # programming language. The obtained results are presented through diagrams on the basis of which the analysis is performed.
