Abstract :This paper assesses the effects of wind speed and mounting type on the performance of photovoltaic insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(PV); modules in the three phase unbalanced IEEE 34 node distribution system. The study was conducted in OpenDSS considering ZIP load model and residential load shape. The module temperature was calculated considering the wind speed and mounting type of the PV panel. The impact of wind speed on PV has been analyzed using three different wind data sets. Furthermore, free standing and flat roof mounting types were considered to evaluate the effect of mounting configuration. It was found that integrating PV into the distribution system reduced substation demand and energy losses. Results also show that the PV produced more power in high wind speed scenarios than in low wind speed scenarios. Regarding the mounting configuration, the PV incorporated with free standing configuration generated more power than the flat roof mounting type.
