“…Output of this inverter produces not sinusoidal waves and only produces square wave. Using LC filters to eliminate the lower and higher order harmonic and then produces sinusoidal waves A Sinusoidal Pulse Width Modulation (SPWM) is employed for generating gate pulse [8]. The simulation model of single-phase DC-AC converter is shown in Fig.7 The output voltage and current waveform of single-phase DC-AC converter with R load and RL load is shown in Fig.…”

Abstract-This work presents the modelling of grid connected renewable energy systems. This system consists of photovoltaic system, dc-dc converter, battery and grid interface inverter. The maximum power from the PV system is extracted using Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) controller. The power extracted from solar PV array is transferred to the grid interface inverter by keeping common dc voltage constant. Sinusoidal Pulse Width Modulation (SPWM) technique is used for generating pulses for inverter. The simulation results of solar photovoltaic system, MPP algorithm, MPPT are presented. The simulation study is carried out using MATLAB.

“…This is particularly attractive in string and multi-string inverters that already supply the necessary voltage to be put on the EPS. An unfortunate downside to transformerless topologies is that the design does not meet safety standards in some countries [26]. In the US, the NEC section 690 was recently updated to allow for ungrounded PV systems.…”

This thesis directed by Professor Dragan MaksimovicA methodology is proposed and executed to characterize and model inverters for grid integration studies using Power Hardware-in-the-Loop. A Hardware-in-the-Loop system is configured using a Real-Time Data System (RTDS), grid simulator, load bank, photovoltaic inverter and bus system. A characterization scheme is developed on the RTDS that is based on the abnormal grid conditions and tests outlined in IEEE 1547 Standard for Interconnecting Distributed Resources with Electric Power Systems. The RTDS is then used to control both the grid simulator and load bank. It was found that it is possible to characterize the inverter's grid protection controller's response to abnormal voltage, abnormal frequency and islanding conditions without prior knowledge of intimate control algorithms or hardware configuration.A model of the system was then created in Matlab Simulink using the data obtained from the characterization process. The inverter is modeled on a high level as a controlled current source and a controller for the inverter model is developed such that the detection and response to the stated abnormal grid conditions of the model directly mimics that of the actual inverter.

“…The quadrature converters also offer a high voltage gain, but these have equal voltage stress across the switch [4] [5]. In particular cases, the line frequency transformer can also be used, but it increases the size and weight of photovoltaic system [6] [7]. The grid-connected photovoltaic systems also need the inverters for power conversion, grid interconnection and control optimization [8] [9].…”

This paper presents a grid connected photovoltaic system (PV) with a proposed high voltage conversion ratio DC-DC converter which steps up the variable low input voltages of photovoltaic module to the required DC link voltage. This voltage is applied to an H-bridge inverter which converts DC voltage into AC voltage and a low pass filter is used to filter the output. By adjusting the duty ratio of switches in DC-DC converter, the magnitude of inverter's output voltage is controlled. The frequency and phase synchronization are ensured by a feedback signal taken from the grid. In this way, inverter is synchronized and connected with the grid to meet the energy demand. The PV system has been designed and simulated.
