Transformer-less photovoltaic (PV) inverters are the major functional units of modern grid-connected PV energy production systems. In general, two power conversion stages are required when low-voltage unregulated photovoltaic (PV) output is conditioned to generate AC power. In this paper, the boost inverter topology that achieves both boosting and inversion functions in a single stage is used as a...
Solar photovoltaic (PV) energy has witnessed double-digit growth in the past decade. The penetration of PV systems as distributed generators in low-voltage grids has also seen significant attention. In addition, the need for higher overall grid efficiency and reliability has boosted the interest in the microgrid concept. High-efficiency PV-based microgrids require maximum power point tracking (MPPT)...
The contribution of distributed generation (DG) to network fault levels depends heavily on the technology employed. In the case of directly connected rotating machines the fault behavior is well established; with synchronous generators contributing higher fault levels than the corresponding induction generators. The contribution of inverter-based distributed generation (IBDG) is the lowest due the...
Grid voltage rise problems occur, especially at light loads, due to the proliferation of distributed generation. Two techniques are proposed for regulating the voltage in low voltage radial networks when inverter based distributed generation is employed. The first technique, voltage regulated power control regulates the voltage by controlling the active power level delivered by the inverter to be...
