With the rapid progression of renewable energies into grids, grid-connected systems are increasing dramatically around world [...]

Abstract This paper analyzes the power smoothing of grid-connected photovoltaic (PV) systems under fast irradiance changes. The analyzed converter is composed a triple active bridge series-resonant (TABSR) DC-DC cascaded with voltage source inverter (VSI). Two controlled variables are considered: battery current and PV voltage. TABSR modeled as sources for ports. ramp rate (RR) control algorith...
