TL;DR: In this article, the authors compared the economics of the MTH-system with the conventional production of electricity from fossil fuel sources, and concluded that the system is not competitive for the levels of carbon tax under discussion, but compares with options for providing electricity from new renewables.

25 Aug 2016TL;DR: In this paper, a power control system includes a battery, a battery power inverter configured to control an amount of the electric power stored or discharged from the battery, and a photovoltaic Power Inverter configurable to control a power output of a PV field.
Abstract: A power control system includes a battery, a battery power inverter configured to control an amount of the electric power stored or discharged from the battery, a photovoltaic power inverter configured to control a power output of a photovoltaic field, and a controller. The power outputs of the battery power inverter and the photovoltaic power inverter combine at a point of interconnection. The controller adjusts a setpoint for the photovoltaic power inverter in response to a determination that the total power at the point of interconnection exceeds a point of interconnection power limit.
