2 System description and strategy

A self-consumption installation is a system connected to the grid that seeks to minimize grid
consumption and increase self-supply. To do so, it is fitted with photovoltaic generation and
storage components.
Photovoltaic self consumption installations with batteries managed by the INGECON SUN
STORAGE 1Play offer a greater range of possibilities for a more efficient management.
The additional back-up function can be activated in this type of installation. With this function,
the INGECON SUN STORAGE 1Play disconnects the installation from the grid in the event of a
power cut and the energy required for consumers is provided from the batteries, operating in a
similar manner to a UPS.
The evolution of the battery charge status will depend on the energy generated by renewable
sources, on the consumption demand of the installation and on configuration of the self
consumption strategy.
An example is given below of a photovoltaic self consumption installation with batteries managed
by INGECON SUN STORAGE 1Play.
Consumption of the installation
In this example the INGECON SUN STORAGE 1Play establishes the photovoltaic production to
supply instantaneous consumption and the battery charging process.
When the batteries are charged, photovoltaic generation is in line with consumption.
At night-time, the batteries allow you to cover the installation demand, minimizing consumption
from the electrical grid.
