The output voltage and current of renewable energy sources such as Photo- voltaic are not controlled. Consequently PV- Grid interface system is employed condition output voltage and current into the grid. This call for efficient and well designed control strategies to ensure reliability, stability and quality power output. This paper proposes nine- level cascaded NPC/H-bridge inverter as the PV- Grid...
The utilization of voltage source inverter (VSI) connected to the grid in photovoltaic systems requires application of control systems capable of regulating the active and reactive output current, ensuring high power quality levels and achieving relative immunity to grid perturbations. In the single phase system the LCL filter is adopted, which can reduce the required filtered inductance and the cost...
This paper analyses the influence of the modulation technique on the size of the grid EMI filter inductor in a full bridge converter for photovoltaic systems. Additionally, the use of an alternative modulation technique is proposed which exhibits the best compromise concerning efficiency, current quality and EMI filter size.
This paper describes a grid-connected photovoltaic (PV) system with the function of active power filter (APF), in which a Z-source network is employed to boost the DC bus voltage during periods when the PV array output is low. After modeling the Z-source network and H-bridge converter, a state space model of Z-source inverter is derived. The model reflects the fact that the Z-source inverter has two...
This paper investigates the interactions which arise between grid connected photovoltaic inverter systems and the electrical grid. In particular, it considers the effect of grid voltage harmonics and grid impedance on the current control performance of grid connected inverter systems. In these photovoltaic inverter systems it is usual to control unity power factor, sinusoidal, current into the grid...
F3E (fundamental frequency front end) is the denomination for a converter with active rectifier and negligibly small DC-link-capacitance. These converters are normally used to operate 3-phase-motors, especially in applications where power regeneration is required. The simplicity and high efficiency of F3E-converters makes them suitable also for renewable energy applications (wind, water etc.), or...
The paper describes FPGA-based real-time simulation method of photovoltaic systems. FPGA devices are widely used for power electronic systems control, but the same chip can have implemented real-time model of controlled system. Prototyping the control circuit before application in power system increases the safeness, and can reduce time and costs of implementation. FPGA-based prototyping of power...
In this paper, we propose a grid-connected photovoltaic power system including batteries in order to provide prescribed reactive and real powers to the grid. According to the stochastic nature of the photovoltaic power, the main feature of the proposed system is to erase power fluctuations by designing a dedicated local control system. With batteries, the whole system is able to smooth the PV power...
