Abrégé

A method and system for using a field factory for solar panel pre-assembly is disclosed. A solar farm site may be difficult to configure. Thus, a field factory proximate to the site may be used for pre-assembly. As one example, the field factory may be used to configure the solar modules, such as for electrical and/or mechanical configuration, and to test the configuration prior to transport to the solar farm site. At the site, the configured solar modules may be installed onto the torque tubes. As another example, the field factory may be used to configure the solar modules, to mechanically connect the solar modules to the torque tubes to form solar module-torque tube combinations, and to test the combinations prior to transport to the solar farm site. At the site, the solar module-torque tube combinations may be installed, either directly or indirectly, onto piles previously driven into the ground.

The method also includes pre-processing the images by compensating for camera intrinsics or distortions, rectifying the images, and/or determining depth information. The method also includes detecting the solar panels by inputting the images into neural networks. The method also includes a first post-processing to compute a first panel pose based on an output of the neural networks. The method also includes generating control signals, based on the first panel pose, for operating a robotic controller for installing the solar panels. In some embodiments, the method also includes homography transforms to obtain a second panel pose, based on the first panel pose and visual patterns or fiducials on a solar panel, and generating the control signals further based on the second panel pose.

Abrégé

A system and method for installing solar panels are provided. The method obtains an image of a solar panel during an in-progress solar installation and estimates features of the solar panel based on a first image using distance simulation, geometric correction, and/or angular adjustment. The method also generates control signals, based on the estimated features, for operating a robotic controller for picking the solar panel. The method also obtains a second image of the solar panel when the solar panel is in a perspective view and detects placement of the solar panel based on the image by determining if the solar panel is co-planar with and at a predetermined offset from a fixed solar panel. Based on the detected placement, control signals are generated for operating a second robotic controller for aligning the solar panel with the fixed solar panel.

Abrégé

A system and method for installing solar panels are provided. The method includes obtaining images of solar panels an installation structure during installation. The method also includes pre-processing the images by compensating for camera intrinsics or distortions, rectifying the images, and/or determining depth information. The method also includes detecting the solar panels by inputting the images into neural networks. The method also includes a first post-processing to compute a first panel pose based on an output of the neural networks. The method also includes generating control signals, based on the first panel pose, for operating a robotic controller for installing the solar panels. In some embodiments, the method also includes homography transforms to obtain a second panel pose, based on the first panel pose and visual patterns or fiducials on a solar panel, and generating the control signals further based on the second panel pose.

Abrégé

A system and method for installing solar panels are provided. The method obtains an image of a solar panel during an in-progress solar installation and estimates features of the solar panel based on a first image using distance simulation, geometric correction, and/or angular adjustment. The method also generates control signals, based on the estimated features, for operating a robotic controller for picking the solar panel. The method also obtains a second image of the solar panel when the solar panel is in a perspective view and detects placement of the solar panel based on the image by determining if the solar panel is co-planar with and at a predetermined offset from a fixed solar panel. Based on the detected placement, control signals are generated for operating a second robotic controller for aligning the solar panel with the fixed solar panel.

Abrégé

A method and system for operating a wind farm by reconciling performance and operational constraints is disclosed. A wind farm may be subject to wakes, thereby reducing performance. In order to lessen the effects of wakes, wake steering of the wind turbines may be performed. Specifically, both an operationally-independent analysis (such as by using a computational fluid dynamic model) and an operationally-dependent analysis may be performed, and the outputs of each analysis may be reconciled in order to determine whether (and how much) to wake steer

Abrégé

Approaches for managing and maintaining a state of charge of an energy storage device by adjusting (biasing) responses to electrical grid operator commands to perform ancillary services are disclosed. In embodiments, methods and systems regulate a set point regulation in an energy system. In an embodiment, a method determines when the set point needs to be changed, calculates a new set point, and moves the output of the system from an old set point to the new set point at a defined ramp rate. The method then incorporates, as part of a set point algorithm, the capability to restore the energy storage device to a desirable state of charge (SOC). Embodiments implement Dynamic Bias, SOC and Signal Bias Range Maintaining, Operational Limits, and Fixed Signal Bias algorithms and perform Intelligent Algorithm Selection to manage and maintain the SOC of an energy storage device by biasing responses to grid operator commands.

Abrégé

Methods and adapters for realizing energy services by a device via a grid connection point are disclosed. An adapter includes a detection unit for measuring a quantity of energy services realized by a mobile device; an identification unit for detecting the identifier of the grid connection point electrically connected to the device; and a communication unit to report connection event information including: quantity of the energy service realized by the device; an identifier associated with the adapter; and the identifier of the grid connection point. In another embodiment, a method receives an energy service signal indicating operating set points for a mobile device; communicates the indicated operating set points to the device; and measures a quantity of energy services realized by the device. The method communicates quantity information of energy services realized by the device and sends updated operating set points for the device based on the communicated quantity information.

Abrégé

An electrical outlet, an electrical outlet cover for use with an electrical outlet and methods of identifying a grid connection point for bill processing of a charging event and managing energy services are disclosed. The electrical outlet cover includes a cover unit having a receptacle opening configured to align with a receptacle of the electric outlet and an identification unit configured to present a unique identification that is associated with the electrical outlet. In an embodiment, a method includes establishing an identity tag at a grid connection point (GCP) that unique identifies the GCP, receiving identity tag information to uniquely identify the GCP and monitoring charge event information indicating attributes of the charging event. The method further includes associating the charge event information with the identity tag information, as associated information; and sending the associated information for reconciliation of billing accounts associated with the GCP and the mobile charging device.
