Solar PV introduces potential unbalances in generation and demand, especially during off-peak periods when it generates more energy and peak periods when load demand rises too high. This intermittent and irregular nature of PV generation makes grid management a difficult task.
Photovoltaic (PV) energy is one of the most promising emerging technologies. According to the passage, the levelised cost of electricity of decentralized solar PV systems is falling below the variable portion of retail electricity prices in some markets, making it a promising option for both residential and commercial segments.
