Along with that, it keeps a track on harmonics and reduces the harmonics as per grid standards (Zmood and Holmes 2003). Inverter switches play a significant part in implementing the control technique. When grid-connected inverters intentionally separate themselves from the PCC, through opening the controlled switch, they operate autonomously.
In this mode, the inverter is connected to the grid at PCC and it transfers the generated power from the DC side to the AC side, i.e., grid and AC loads (Ahmed et al. 2011). The voltage reference is taken as per the grid side requirements for inverter controller.
Proper inverter management in grid-connected PV systems ensures the stability and quality of the electricity supplied to the grid. An appropriate control strategy is necessary to ensure reliable performance over diverse system configurations and fluctuating environmental conditions.
Initially, the proposed control of the grid side is introduced. Secondly, to synchronize the grid side voltage with grid current, a synchronous reference frame (SRF) based phase locked loop (PLL) is applied. Finally, the simulation of grid-connected inverters using PSIM is presented to illustrate concepts and results.
Effective Inverter control is vital for optimizing PV power usage, especially in off-grid applications. Proper inverter management in grid-connected PV systems ensures the stability and quality of the electricity supplied to the grid.
