Abstract
This thesis report investigates and observe the impact of Photovoltaic (PV) location and
penetration to power system stability. In recent years, a significant increase in
Renewable Energy (RE) especially in solar can be seen from National Energy Balance
report from Energy Commission (EC). Furthermore, it is expected that the energy
capacity for RE that contribute to the national energy mix will increase by 20% by 2025.
For investigation and simulation purposes, the author injects different PV capacity to a
utility grid model that use 33kV voltage level system. In addition, the author also
simulates the utility grid without any injection from the PV system for controlled
simulation study. Moreover, in order to draw out the maximum power generated by PV,
this paper implements Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) with Perturbation and
Observation (P and O) algorithm. The result will show the data in term of voltage and
power with respect to the time. Moreover, these data will be compared with the
controlled simulation which is simulation of non-injected PV system. Thus, shows the
impact of PV penetration to the voltage and power stability and whether the PV system
is suitable to be installed at the acquired irradiance and ambient temperature location.
