“…On-grid power converters are also available to control the PV systems but without the use of the DC/DC stage. These architectures are also called single-stage [4]. Nevertheless, this sort of non-DC/DC stage power converters have less development in the industry, though one of its advantages is the higher global efficiency for the power conversion process because of the reduction, mainly, of the commutation losses associated to the inclusion of the DC/DC stage or boost converter [5].…”

Predictive control has risen as a plausible option in the control of power converters for photovoltaic utilisation. In this work, a predictive control scheme is proposed to obtain the maximum power point in a photovoltaic array coupled directly to a grid-connected DC/AC power converter. The architecture considered avoids the use of the DC/DC stage, reducing the losses related to the inclusion of the boost stage. The introduced control strategy is proved by simulations in Matlab&Simulink, demonstrating flexibility to include the non-linear behaviour of the system and satisfying performance in terms of DC voltage and AC current control.
