This paper proposes a single phase solar based dual mode power inverter system for domestic and industrial use. Which allows the connection of additional energy sources and storage elements to a domestic photovoltaic grid connected system. The systems output port is designed to behave as a power source or sink, which allows the system to behave as power sink or source. It allows the connection ...

Modeling of Cascaded Multilevel converter has put more emphasize on conventional cascaded Hbridge inverter. First a new phase shifted SPWM control algorithm for cascaded NPC/H-bridge inverter is proposed. Its Superior harmonic suppression is verified by comparing its harmonic spectrum with that of the conventional multicarrier approach. For DCbus capacitor voltage control, a new, balance circui...

This paper presents a novel concept of utilizing the photo voltaic solar farm inverter as STATCOM(Static Compensator), named PV-STATCOM, in order to improve the voltage profile of the power system. The entire STATCOM is able to transmit either active or reactive power into the grid. This system is connected to a 14 BUS IEEE standard grid as a case study to simulate the performance of the system...

Maximum power point tracking (MPPT) is a technique that grid tie inverters, solar battery chargers and similar devices use to get the maximum possible power from one or more solar panels. In this paper the simulation result of the P&O algorithm and the conventional maximum power point tracking technique compared with Intelligent Control (fuzzy logic controller-FLC). In fact the target of this m...

This paper focuses on a hybrid islanding detection algorithm for parallel-inverters-based microgrids. The proposed algorithm is implemented on the unit ensuring the control of the intelligent bypass switch connecting or disconnecting the microgrid from the utility. This method employs a grid impedance estimation technique that uses resonance excitation once grid fault occurs. It includes two st...

In renewable power generation the wind energy has been noted as the most rapidly growing technology; it attracts interest as one of the most cost-effective ways to generate electricity from renewable sources. Wind generation system has potential application for the grid support. The voltage of the direct driven permanent magnet wind generators (PMSG) is variable due to the intermittent nature o...

Nowadays renewable energy sources are essential to meet the real power demand. All the Distributed Energy Resources are connected to the common grid through three phase Voltage Source Inverter (VSI). The reliable operation of microgrid can be achieved by controlling three phase voltage source inverter. Voltage and frequency of the Distributed Energy Resources are continuously varying and they d...

Grid connected inverters are important building blocks in renewable energy conversion systems. In conventional voltage sourcing grid connected inverters, any mismatch between the synthesized output waveforms of the inverters and the grid voltage will generate large erroneous currents unless a fast current feedback is used. The current control requires rather fast sampling rates and considerable...

ELECTRIC utilities and end users of electric power are becoming increasingly concerned about meeting the growing energy demand. Seventy five percent of total global energy demand is supplied by the burning of fossil fuels. But increasing air pollution, global warming concerns, diminishing fossil fuels and their increasing cost have made it necessary to look towards renewable sources as a future...
