Definitions
- the invention relates to a solar module with a receiving unit and a communication unit for transmitting the received precision time signal to an inverter, as well as an energy generation system with such a solar module.
- the network subscriber has a
- Receiving unit for receiving a time signal defining a reference time.
- Solar systems in particular as decentralized energy producers with the measurement technology integrated in the inverter of the solar system are particularly suitable for monitoring a phase shift caused by the load flow and reacting quickly and appropriately to changes in the phase shift.
- the receiver unit for the reference time signal into the inverter.
- a solar module according to the invention comprises a plurality of solar cells which are used for
- a receiving unit for receiving a precision time signal and a communication unit for synchronous transmission of the received
- Module connections or via the direct current lines, or also from the voltage that only drops over a part of the solar cells, can be easily generated so that these components can be supplied from the direct voltage power.
- the communication unit does not transmit position information from the receiving unit extracted from a plurality of time signals from various transmitters of the time signals, for example satellites, as is customary with GPS signals. Rather, the high-precision time information itself is transmitted synchronously, that is to say transmitted in such a way that the transmission time of the communication unit has a fixed temporal relationship with the reception time of the receiving unit. In this way, the transmitted time signal provides a highly precise time reference to the events, in particular operating or measurement events, of one connected to the direct current lines
- Inverter can be obtained.
- the communication unit is set up as a radio unit for wireless transmission of the precision time signal to the inverter. To this end, the additional effort of wired communication is avoided.
- a use of common radio protocols such as Bluetooth is without
- the precision time signal can be, for example, capacitive or inductive
- High-frequency signal can be modulated onto the DC power and is thus transmitted in particular to an inverter provided for converting the DC power and evaluated there.
- inverter provided for converting the DC power and evaluated there.
- other types of superimposition of the direct current power with a transmission signal should not be excluded.
- the transmission of the precision time signal from the solar module to a connected inverter leads to a time shift, but this is insignificant in the context of monitoring a phase shift in the network as long as the
- Time shift has a constant value over time.
- the arrangement can be accommodated in a junction box of a solar module, or have an independent housing in order to be arranged in the vicinity of the module, in particular between the DC voltage lines with which the solar module can be electrically connected to other solar modules.
- the solar module-integrable arrangement can in particular via a
- Insulation displacement technology can be electrically connected to the DC voltage lines in order to have access to a supply voltage and, if necessary, to be able to transmit the precision time signal.
- cutting and clamping technology it is easily possible, for example, to supplement an existing solar module or an existing energy generation system with a solar module with an arrangement according to the invention.
- an energy generation system comprises a solar module according to the invention, as well as one connected to the solar module
- the inverter having a device for detecting a point in time related to the precision time signal with a fixed phase reference within a voltage curve of a connected network, in particular one
- the inverter can assign a specific point in time obtained from the precision time signal to each voltage zero crossing.
- These individual times can be aggregated, for example by averaging, in order to reduce the amount of data and to compensate for fluctuations in the individual times due to network distortions.
- the individual or aggregated points in time can then be compared with points in time of voltage zero crossings recorded at other points in the network in order to be able to detect a phase offset between these points and monitor it over a longer period of time.
- the inverter is for this purpose
- the transfer can take place, for example, via a data link to a portal using internet protocols.
- the invention is illustrated below with the aid of figures, of which
- Fig. 1 shows an embodiment according to the invention of a solar module and a
- Fig. 2 shows a power generation plant according to the invention.
- a solar module 1 is shown in which a plurality of solar cells 8 are connected in series to generate a DC power.
- DC power is led out via DC voltage lines 6 from the solar module 1 to this with other solar modules or with a
- the DC voltage lines 6 are routed through an arrangement 2, in particular an arrangement integrated into a junction box of the solar module.
- a communication unit 4 and a receiving unit 3 are connected to the DC voltage lines 6 for the electrical supply.
- an antenna 5 is connected to the receiving unit 3, via which the receiving unit 3 can receive a precision time signal, for example a satellite-based GPS signal, via which a highly precise reference point in time can be obtained.
- the information about the reference time is transmitted to the communication unit 4 connected to the receiving unit 3.
- the communication unit 4 is set up to convert the reference point in time into a data signal of a suitable format and to transmit it to an inverter.
- the data signal contains the reference time and the format and the signal frequency are selected so that the receiver can determine a reception time with sufficient accuracy, in particular an accuracy of less than 10 me, preferably less than 1 me.
- Corresponding formats or usable frequency ranges are known to the person skilled in the art.
- the transmission by the communication unit 4 can take place via radio or via the DC voltage lines 6, in that the data signal is modulated onto them inductively or capacitively as a high-frequency signal, for example.
- the data signal can then be obtained by the inverter from the DC voltage lines by demodulation and evaluated.
- inverters that do not have the information about the reference time can also be supplied with the information
- DC voltage lines 6 are connected to the solar module 1.
- FIG. 2 shows an energy generation system in the form of a building with a PV system installed on a building roof, which includes solar modules 10.
- the solar modules 10 are connected to one another, to an arrangement 2 and to an inverter 11 via direct current lines 6.
- the arrangement 2 is shown here as an independent arrangement, but can be integrated into one of the solar modules 10, as shown in connection with the description relating to FIG. 1.
- the inverter 11 converts one over the
- Direct current lines 6 supplied direct current power of the solar modules 10 in a
- the arrangement 2 is set up to receive a precision time signal from a time signal generator 14, here a satellite, and is located with the roof at a location at which the precision time signal of the time signal generator 14 can be received.
- the arrangement 2 transmits the received time signal alternatively as a radio signal or as a PLC signal modulated onto the direct current power to the inverter 11, which is set up to receive it. Because of its installation location, for example in a basement of the building, the inverter 11 is not able to receive the precision time signal of the time signal generator 14 directly.
- the inverter is set up to record a point in time with a fixed phase reference within a voltage curve of the connected network 12, in particular a voltage zero crossing, to relate this point in time to the received time signal and to store it.
- the inverter can have a PLL (phase locked loop) circuit.
- PLL phase locked loop
- a network frequency or a network frequency profile with a start or end time related to the received time signal can also be determined and stored, so that a message is made about a large number of recorded times, which increases the accuracy of the detection.
- the data stored in this way about times and / or network frequencies or network frequency curves can be transmitted to a central evaluation unit for such data at a later point in time.
- a power generation plant according to the invention can have components for receiving the time signal for other communication purposes without
- the arrangement 2 can also be installed subsequently in an existing energy generation system. To do this, it can be installed in a junction box of an existing solar module and connected to the direct current lines. However, it is also conceivable to provide an additional connection unit, in particular a connection unit which is simply clipped over the direct current lines by means of insulation displacement technology, as described in the document DE 20 2012 103 480 U1.
