Abstract To reduce current harmonics caused by switching frequency, T-type grid-connected inverter topology with LCL filter is adopted. In view of the disadvantages of the slow response speed of the traditional current control and the failure to eliminate the influence of the LCL filter on the grid-connected current by using current PI control alone, a current double closed loop PI current tracking control is proposed. Through the theoretical analysis of the grid-connected inverter control principle, the grid-connected inverter control model is designed, and the transfer function model of each control link is deduced, and the current loop PI regulator is designed… More >

Abstract Photovoltaic (PV) systems are electric power systems designed to supply usable solar power by means of photovoltaics, which is the conversion of light into electricity using semiconducting materials. PV systems have gained much attention and are a very attractive energy resource nowadays. The substantial advantage of PV systems is the usage of the most abundant and free energy from the sun. PV systems play an important role in reducing feeder losses, improving voltage profiles and providing ancillary services to local loads. However, large PV grid-connected systems may have a destructive impact on the stability of the electric grid. This is… More >

Abstract Photovoltaic power generating is one of the primary methods of utilizing solar energy resources, with large-scale photovoltaic grid-connected power generation being the most efficient way to fully utilize solar energy. In order to provide reference strategies for pertinent researchers as well as potential implementation, this paper tries to provide a survey investigation and technical analysis of machine learning-related approaches, statistical approaches and optimization techniques for solar power generation and forecasting. Deep learning-related methods, in particular, can theoretically handle arbitrary nonlinear transformations through proper model structural design, such as hidden layer topology optimization and objective function analysis to save information that… More > Graphic Abstract

Abstract With the increasing integration of new energy generation into the power system and the massive withdrawal of traditional fossil fuel generation, the power system is faced with a large number of stability problems. The phenomenon of low-frequency oscillation caused by lack of damping and moment of inertia is worth studying. In recent years, virtual synchronous generator (VSG) technique has been developed rapidly because it can provide considerable damping and moment of inertia. While improving the stability of the system, it also inevitably causes the problem of active power oscillation, especially the low mutual damping between the VSG and the power… More >

Abstract The generation of electricity based on renewable energy sources, particularly Photovoltaic (PV) system has been greatly increased and it is simply instigated for both domestic and commercial uses. The power generated from the PV system is erratic and hence there is a need for an efficient converter to perform the extraction of maximum power. An improved interleaved Single-ended Primary Inductor-Converter (SEPIC) converter is employed in proposed work to extricate most of power from renewable source. This proposed converter minimizes ripples, reduces electromagnetic interference due to filter elements and the continuous input current improves the power output of PV panel. A… More >

Abstract Global energy demand is growing rapidly owing to industrial growth and urbanization. Alternative energy sources are driven by limited reserves and rapid depletion of conventional energy sources (e.g., fossil fuels).Solar photovoltaic (PV), as a source of electricity, has grown in popularity over the last few decades because of their clean, noise-free, low-maintenance, and abundant availability of solar energy. There are two types of maximum power point tracking (MPPT) techniques: classical and evolutionary algorithm-based techniques. Precise and less complex perturb and observe (P&O) and incremental conductance (INC) approaches are extensively employed among classical techniques. This study used a field-programmable gate array… More >

Abstract Multi-port converters are considered as exceeding earlier period decade owing to function in a combination of different energy sources in a single processing unit. Renewable energy sources are playing a significant role in the modern energy system with rapid development. In renewable sources like fuel combustion and solar energy, the generated voltages change due to their environmental changes.

Abstract Under complex grid conditions, the grid voltage usually has an imbalance, low order harmonics, and a small of DC bias. When the grid voltage contains low order harmonics and a small amount of DC bias component, the inverter's output current cannot meet the grid connection requirements, and there is a three-phase current imbalance in the control strategy of common VSG under unbalanced voltage. A theoretical analysis of non-ideal power grids is carried out, and a VSG control strategy under complex operating conditions is proposed. Firstly, the third-order generalized integrator (TOGI) is used to eliminate the influence of the DC component… More >

Abstract As the proportion of renewable energy power generation continues to increase, the number of grid-connected microgrids is gradually increasing, and geographically adjacent microgrids can be interconnected to form a Micro-Grid Community (MGC). In order to reduce the operation and maintenance costs of a single micro grid and reduce the adverse effects caused by unnecessary energy interaction between the micro grid and the main grid while improving the overall economic benefits of the micro grid community, this paper proposes a bi-level energy management model with the optimization goal of maximizing the social welfare of the micro grid community and minimizing the… More >
