Abstract

Throughout its history, BP Solar has focussed strongly on the production of integrated power solutions to it´s customers, using photovoltaics as the central, but not unique, technology. This paper discusses the customer driven development of two `new generation´ hybrid power systems, one AC the other DC. Both involve the combination of photovoltaics with a conventional power source (diesel/wind) in a fully integrated system, as well as providing remote electronic system access, advanced data and event logging, and comprehensive computer graphic analysis software
