Abstract
Tracking a PV system’s maximum power point is necessary as demand for grid-connected solar systems rises, regardless of utility demand. Since the PV system’s output is D.C., a converter serving as a middleman between the PV system and the D.C. link capacitor is necessary to track the maximum power at all loads. Since the firing angle of the IGBT in the boost converter is between 0 and 1 at maximum loads during MPPT, the boost converter often serves as a medium between the PV system and the dc link capacitor. Regardless of the grid utility, the dc link capacitor voltage needs to be kept constant for the inverter to operate smoothly. Since the grid will be supplying the reactive current, the reference reactive current must be kept at zero. To do this, the active current reference signal must be established by setting up the reference voltage across the dc link capacitor. A PI controller is utilised in this instance to create active reference current. Additionally, the reference voltage is determined using the inverter output voltage peak. A three-phase inverter fed by the PV system and connected to the grid was used to test the suggested control method under variable light and foggy circumstances.
