Modeling and design of photovoltaic power plant connected to the MV side of Malaysian grid with TNB technical regulation compatibility

Increasing penetration of photovoltaic power plants (PVPPs) to the electrical grid leads to continuous evaluation of grid interconnection requirements. For this purpose, Malaysian grid representative from Tenaga Nasional Berhad (TNB) issued technical rules and requirements concerning the connection...
