Abstract

The optimal management of production and storing of photovoltaic energy increases the life duration of equipment and accordingly reduces the cost of installation and exploitation. In this chapter, we present the operation of a stand-alone PV installation equipped with solar lead batteries. Our first aim is to ensure a longer batteries life and to protect them against the causes of premature aging, also to optimize the installation operation. All of that in order to minimize the cost and, also, to reduce the negative effect of manufacturing and the impact of using toxic materials such as lead, this allows to contribute to the environmental protection. Therefore, the experiment shows that the system concerned: guarantees mainly the state of charge estimation by a reliable algorithm in real time. The estimation is performed by a dynamic method to reduce the estimation errors caused by classical and static systems. These errors can reach 6% in this study; they are required into consideration and compensated during the PV installation operation. The charge/discharge process control allows the protection of the batteries, and the regulation system realized optimizes the number of charge/discharge cycles and, consequently, optimizes the batteries lifetime.
