Popis: Usage of electrical energy obtained from renewable sources is rapidly increasing. Distributed solar systems will be widely used. The photovoltaic (PV) systems can be used to produce active and reactive power or to compensate reactive power. This paper proposes a solution for monitoring and management of distributed PV systems from the integrated center. The main parts of the system are a cloud infrastructure at the Data Center and Internet of Things (IoT) devices at distributed sites. Also, networks that are used for communication between main parts are an important piece of the proposed solution. While IoT devices continuously send information about electrical parameters of the system and environmental conditions, the inverter, as a part of the PV system, can be controlled by influencing the Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) algorithm operation and inverter functionality.
