Four-wire low-voltage microgrids supply one-phase consumers with electricity, responding to a continuously changing demand. For addressing climate change concerns, national governments have implemented incentive schemes for residential consumers, encouraging the installation of home PV panels for covering self-consumption needs. In the absence of adequate storage capacities, the surplus is sold back by these entities, called prosumers, to the grid operator or, in local markets, to other consumers. While these initiatives encourage the proliferation of green energy resources, and ample research is dedicated to local market designs for prosumer–consumer trading, the main concern of distribution network operators is the influence of power flows generated by prosumers’ surplus injection on the operating states of microgrids. The change in power flow amount and direction can greatly influence the economic and technical operating conditions of radial grids. This paper proposes a metaheuristic algorithm for prosumer surplus management that optimizes the power surplus injections using the automated control of three-phase inverters, with the aim of reducing the active power losses over a typical day of operation. A case study was performed on two real distribution networks with distinct layouts and load profiles, and the algorithm resulted efficient in both scenarios. By optimally distributing the prosumer generation surplus on the three phases of the network, significant loss reductions were obtained, with the best results when the generated power was injected in an unbalanced, three-phase flow.

“…It achieves a good performance in a variety of applications. Moreover, the use of renewable energy sources to feed multilevel converters presents a well-defined choice [22][23][24][25][26][27][28] due to the many advantages brought by these systems. In this context, we appealed to the literature to justify our choice of topology.…”

In this article, one of the most recent multilevel converter topologies named packed U-cells is developed for three-phase grid-connected inverter mode using photovoltaic input voltage sources. This topology makes a very important research subject in what concerns the adaptation of multilevel inverters with photovoltaic systems. According to the literature, it is well applicable with the string type and suitable for high-voltage applications because the number of switches is less than conventional topology and maximum blocking voltage is Udc and 2 Udc; however, it is not applicable for multistring type and unsuitable for the central type because it is based on isolated DC source. The packed U-cells topology is highly optimized from the point of view of the number of passive and active components. The output voltages of our converter are composed by seven levels obtained by the auxiliary buses voltages regulation. In order to obtain the DC input voltages of 120 V for the inverter, photovoltaic generators are connected to a boost converters. The maximum power point tracking method based on the Perturb and Observe was used to improve and optimize the performance of the photovoltaic system control in the simulation part. The grid-connected PUC7 inverter operates with a unit power factor and injects active power into the grid. The control is configured to make the current waveform in phase with the AC voltage waveform. Reference angle variations have been made to operate with different power factors to test the performance of the applied control and the influence of these variations on the auxiliary buses voltages regulation. The simulations were done under Matlab/Simulink platform and have been experimentally verified using dSpace 1104 controller board and three-phase packed U-cells inverter composed by nine half-bridge insulated-gate bipolar transistor modules.
