Grid-connected photovoltaic (PV) generation attracts increasing attention in countries around the world and it has been extensively studied during last ten years. In the literature, the control system for PV systems has been designed to respond extremely fast to changed weather condition, and the whole regulating duration is generally within tens of milliseconds. As PV installation is moving towards...
Photovoltaic power plants pose some challenges when integrated with the power grid. The PV plants always focus on extracting the maximum power from the arrays. This makes the PV system unavailable for helping in regulating the grid frequency as compared to conventional generators. The objective of this paper is to introduce a pseudo power point tracking which provides frequency regulation functionality...
The emergence of large amounts of distributed energy resources (DER) poses new challenges for the active participation of those units in the control of the grid. In this context, a recent development is the microgrid, which presents a coordinated approach for integrating the DER in the electrical grid. Microgrids are able to operate either connected to the distribution grid or in islanded mode. In...
A novel parallel operation control scheme - Modulated Phase Tracking Method (MPTM) is put forward. In MPTM each paralleled inverter modulates its power value into the phase of a periodic pulse signal and transmits it to the communication line. By phase-locked technique, all the inverters track the pulse-leading inverter which has the maximal output power value. When the output pulses of inverters...
This paper analyses the behaviour of the DC-link of a high power (50 kW), high frequency (150 kHz) voltage fed inverter with a series resonant load circuit for industrial induction heating applications which is characterized by a full bridge inverter with a power control based on pulse density modulation (PDM). The operation of this power control strategy can cause large oscillations of the voltage...
Detailed analysis, simulation and hardware results of grid connected inverter with maximum power point tracker and power factor control in Malaysian climate are presented. A six-switch topology inverter with symmetrical Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) switching technique is used. A low pass filter is incorporated in the circuit to filter out unwanted harmonics and produce a sinusoidal AC current. Low...
