E1.02 - L3 Energy
5 MW Solar Power Grid Analysis
Sponsor: David Sanchez, TRC
Student Team: Lisette Lugo, Lilly Martinez, Luke Scarpato
Faculty Advisor: Dr. Billy Diong
This project evaluates the integration of a 5 MW solar generator into a 24 kV distribution system for a local municipality. It assesses impacts on voltage levels, short-circuit capacity, and system stability, identifying violations and proposing mitigation strategies. We conduct load flow, short-circuit, and flicker analysis to ensure reliable, safe operation. This study supports the adoption of renewable energy while ensuring grid stability and efficiency.
