Analysis of lightning-induced voltages effect with SPD placement for sustainable operation in hybrid solar PV-battery energy storage system

This paper discusses the lightning-induced voltage effect on a hybrid solar photovoltaic (PV)-battery energy storage system with the presence of surge protection devices (SPD). Solar PV functions by utilizing solar energy, in generating electricity, to supply to the customer. To ensure its consisten...
