Device and method for monitoring and inhibiting potential induced attenuation effect for photovoltaic power station
Technical Field
The invention relates to a device for monitoring and inhibiting potential induced attenuation effect for a photovoltaic power station and a testing method thereof, belonging to the technical field of new energy utilization.
Background
With the development of new energy, the photovoltaic power generation system is widely applied, but the phenomenon that the generated energy of part of photovoltaic power stations is obviously reduced after the photovoltaic power stations are operated for 3-4 years or even shorter is particularly obvious in high-temperature and high-humidity areas.
Potential Induced Decay (PID) was first discovered by Sunpower corporation in 2005. PID means that under the action of long-term high voltage, leakage current exists between glass and packaging materials, so that the performance of the component is lower than the design standard. Research of the American renewable energy laboratory and Solon company shows that PID phenomenon exists in the preparation and composition of the P-type crystalline silicon cell under negative bias. PID phenomena can attenuate monolithic component power by more than 50%. Numerous studies have shown that the power attenuation of components is most severe in high temperature, high humidity and high saline-alkali areas and coastal areas, and that the reasons for the PID phenomenon of the components are mainly 3 aspects except for external environmental factors: system aspects, component aspects, and battery slice aspects. Component PID phenomena caused by potential differences between component rims and the interior of components in photovoltaic power plants have been recognized by the industry. The PID effect can cause the power attenuation of the photovoltaic module, so that the generated energy of the photovoltaic power station is greatly reduced, and the great economic loss is caused, so that the PID effect of the power station module is significant to the photovoltaic industry.
Aiming at the reason of potential induced attenuation, for an unworn photovoltaic power station, PID-resistant materials and processes are generally adopted to reduce the risk of PID phenomenon of the component, and in addition, the mode of grounding the negative electrode of the component is adopted, so that the direct current input end of the grid-connected inverter has a certain limitation, because the direct current input end of the grid-connected inverter must have the function of grounding the negative electrode, and if the grid-connected inverter adopted by the system is non-isolated, the component array and the power grid are not electrically isolated, the risk of leakage current occurs to the system when the photovoltaic grid-connected inverter works, and the leakage protection function is triggered; moreover, when the negative electrode of the component is grounded, direct current side leakage may be caused, and thus, an additional leakage detection and protection device must be added to prevent the risk.
If PID phenomenon occurs in the built photovoltaic power station, the components with serious power attenuation are generally required to be replaced, or a battery array negative electrode grounding measure is required to remove the bias voltage. Both of these measures require extensive modification of the system, such as the use of higher withstand voltage dc distribution cables, the addition of leakage protection devices and even the replacement of grid-connected inverters, which requires significant modification costs.

Chinese patent CN 204794877U discloses a PID effect suppressor, which comprises a sampling processing circuit for PV voltage, output voltage and output current to a solar panel, the sampling processing circuit is connected with an operation control circuit, and the operation control circuit is connected with a voltage loading control circuit through an optocoupler isolation circuit.

Currently, there is no disclosure concerning the use of devices capable of monitoring and suppressing the PID effect on strings in photovoltaic plants, nor is there any such product in the market.
