SummaryLCL‐type grid‐connected inverters have seen extensive use of the passivity‐based control (PBC) system. However, traditional PBC systems rarely take time delay into account while designing the system or doing a stability study. Therefore, utilizing Lyapunov's criterion to conclude that the system is stable is not accurate. The analysis revealed that the differential terms of PBC loops with the Euler–Lagrange (EL) mathematical model could induce instability considered control delay for LCL‐type grid‐connected inverter system. Compared with traditional EL‐PBC method, this paper proposed a reconstructed EL‐PBC scheme by properly optimizing the noise term. Then, the equivalent output impedance of the grid‐connected inverter system with proposed controller is analyzed with frequency domain passivity theory. The controller parameters are also optimized to ensure both the internal stability of LCL‐type grid‐connected inverter and the risk of interactive resonance in complex weak and nonideal grid. Results from simulation and experimentation support the modified control structure's efficacy and performance.
