As the key interface between new energy generation and power grids, a PV grid-connected inverter ensures that the power generated by new energy can be injected into the power grid in a stable and safe way, and its power grid adaptability has also received more and more close attention in the field of new energy research.
Grid-connected PV inverters have traditionally been thought as active power sources with an emphasis on maximizing power extraction from the PV modules. While maximizing power transfer remains a top priority, utility grid stability is now widely acknowledged to benefit from several auxiliary services that grid-connected PV inverters may offer.
Grid Connection Some properties of a PV inverter grid connection can cause the grid voltage at the inverter to increase and exceed the permissible operating range if the feed power is high. If this occurs, SMA grid guard, an independent disconnection device integrated into the inverter, will safely disconnect the inverter from the grid.
Parameters of the grid-connected inverter system. The simulations of the steady-state operations are carried out when the MPC method is used. The given active power is 1000 W, and the given reactive power is 0 Var. The grid-connected currents are shown in Fig. 13.7A, and the spectrogram of the currents is shown in Fig. 13.7B.
Phenomena such as grid voltage deviation, three-phase voltage unbalance, frequency deviation, and harmonic voltage at the access point may all have a significant impact on the normal operation and performance of grid-connected inverters. Figure 3. Influencing factors of grid adaptability of grid-connected inverters.
The technical characteristics of the grid-tied inverter must meet defined requirements, including factors such as power factor, efficiency, voltage and frequency regulation, and response to grid fluctuations. Compliance with national and international grid connection regulations is essential.
