Abstract |
In order to perform comparative and detailed
measurements of the performance of grid connected photovoltaic
(PV) inverters under realistic operating conditions, this paper
proposes two designs and implementations of a 200kW PV generator
simulator: an interleaved three-phase synchronous buck
converter with LC output filter and a conventional synchronous
buck converter with LCL output filter. Both implementations
consist of commercial half-bridge modules and use almost the
same hardware. An appropriate control strategy that implements
the I-V output characteristic of a PV generator (with or without
partial shading) using a single PI controller is proposed. To
establish realistic operating conditions, the output power can be
varied according to a given course of generated power during a
day. |
