Research on local consumption of distributed generation in distribution network with coordinated development of facility agriculture

With the widespread of distributed generation in the facility agriculture, the promotion of local consumption of distributed power is a problem to be studied. The background and the application of the distributed generation with the coordinated development of facility agriculture are introduced. The models of the loads and the photovoltaic system are established in a greenhouse. The load control strategies are proposed with the objective of maximizing the local consumption of the photovoltaic system. The software DIgSILENT PowerFactory is used for the simulation of the photovoltaic system and the loads while considering the loss of power in lines. The simulation results show that the proposed control strategy can make good use of the controllable load in the greenhouse and the electric power generated by the distributed generation can be effectively consumed.
