Project Deliverables

In this deliverable, a prospective analysis is conducted, assessing the financial challenges that could arise in case of a high penetration of PV in electricity grids, under various assumptions (e.g., PV penetration level, type of PV system considered, type of grid tariffs applied, ...). The financial challenges are assessed by evaluating the potential impacts on the cash flows (positive or negative) of two key stakeholders: (1) grid operators and (2) PV systems' operators/owners.

The present deliverable details the monitoring implementation and data collection from small and mid-size PV systems. The deliverable explains what data is being monitored, how it is used, how it is being monitored, stored, shared, any data quality procedures, and any lessons learnt during the implementation of the monitoring guidelines.

This document is the third draft of the Dissemination and Communication Plan for the SERENDI-PV project. This version describes the dissemination and communication efforts that will be taken throughout the SERENDI-PV project from month 30-33 until the end of the project at month 48, including the best practices, tools, and channels that will be exploited. It contains the general strategy and operations guidance that will govern the overall dissemination and communication activities of the rest of the project duration.

The present deliverable contains the report of the first Advisory Board meeting aimed to provide qualitative advice to SERENDI-PV partners regarding the requirements, project objectives, impacts, standardization, exploitation and dissemination.

The purpose of this report is to define the main parameters affecting the performance, reliability, profitability, environmental impact and grid integration of PV systems and components, while also providing a reference of the state-of-the-art for each one of these parameters. Special attention is given to those parameters considered as Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) within the context of the SERENDI-PV project.

This document focuses on the assessment of the European PV Fleet Capacity and the regulatory environment in which PV systems in Europe must operate.

Within the photovoltaic domain there are a wide range of different datasets, data exchanges, use cases, actors, rules, standards, and protocols. As such it is difficult to define a one-size-fits-all set of standards.Therefore, in this report, a set of “ideal” protocols and recommendations are defined that

The objective of the work described in this report was to have a better understanding of the industry needs concerning the simulation of PV systems, and to compare a selection of the existing tools and models available on the market.

The topic covered in this document is automated supervision in the photovoltaic sector. There is an immediate need for a paradigm shift in the supervision of photovoltaic power plants, a need for process automation and the introduction of distributed architectures of intelligent models that ensure flexibility, scalability and adaptation to emerging technologies.
