5 Particular Characteristics of PV Substitution of conventional controllable medium/peak load power plants Local Power Generation Near to the load increases reliability of power supply Distributed can provide system services where required In the distribution network reduces the loading of the transmission network and transmission losses PV can not only substitute power generation but also provide system services for network operation (where reasonable) Inverter-Coupled Power Generation Inverters can do everything 9 Contribution to Network Stability by PV Stability of Network Operation supported by Keeping Frequency limits Keeping Voltage limits Fault-Ride-Through Capability Keeping Connected during Faults in the transmission network Supplying fault current to support the voltage Solving Congestions New guideline for parallel operation with medium voltage grid feeding 10 5
