How to assign % of the total AC output to be fed directly to the load?

[Aboud]

Dear All

 

I wander how to configure the software to achieve the following:

% solar used on site without storage is c.50%

 

Kindly see the example below for a clear explanation:

Total AC output: 131294kWh

Direct PV to loads = 62702 kWh which corresponds to 47.8% of the Total AC output above.

 

What I am looking for is how to tell the software to utilize 50% of Total AC output directly to the loads leave the other 50% for the storage and grid feed-in?

 

Please let me know if you need a further info!

 

Regards

Hello,

Any help would be appreciated!

 

Thank you

Dear Aboud,

the fraction of the generated PV energy that can directly be used by the loads is not a design parameter but a result of the simulation. In order to get more own consumption you would have to tweak e.g. the load profile (use a profile that matches the PV generation profile a bit better). In this manner you can get closer to the result that you want to get. But you can't just input

It really depends on a lot of factors, like the simultaneousness of PV and load, the respective power values and more.

Hope that helps, kind regards,

Many thanks martin
As far as I understand, the more the load value is closed to the PV installed capacity 'Regardless other factors like location, etc' the more PV is is directed to load?

Could you mention a trick/ parameter in the software which will change the amount of PV to load when modified?
