The subject of load management for stand-alone photovoltaic (SAPV) power systems is addressed. The objective is to mini-mize the life-cycle-cost of the system while, at the same time, the battery is protected and the load priorities are observed. The first step in this approach involves a general load classification. The idea is to manipulate the controllable loads in order to reduce battery size. For this reason, optimum curves are obtained for the controllable loads. Finally, a tracking algorithm has been devised in order to implement the optimum load management scheme. The previously described method yields cost optimum and reliable SAPV systems.
