Abstract

Technical issues will arise across the solar energy/utility interface as the use of solar energy penetrates further into our society. These are not the issues of simply collecting solar energy or of utility energy production but those issues related to the interconnection of solar energy systems with utility systems. The authors address this task by classifying solar technologies and then by setting a present utility baseline. Then they approach the matter of solar end-use technologies and solar generating technologies, with emphasis on technical issues of their interface. Finally, they discuss the challenges to the utility industry and describe a program of research and development that they consider necessary to meet these challenges.
