Abstract
In this paper, solar photovoltaic (SPV)-based microgrid has been connected to grid. Modified synchronous reference frame control of PV inverter has been proposed to estimate reference current for power quality improvement. Conventionally, DC link voltage of the PV inverter is regulated using proportional integral (PI) controller, which suffers from undershoot/overshoot and long settling time during load variation. Intelligent control technique can be the better solution with more accuracy and fast dynamic response. In the present work, interval type-2 (IT-2)-based fuzzy logic controller (FLC) has been proposed to control inverter’s DC link voltage. Performance of the grid-connected SPV system is analyzed using proposed IT-2 FLC and compared with conventional PI as well as type-1 FLC. It compensates the harmonics of the nonlinear load and maintains the grid at unity power factor by supplying the reactive demand of the load. Total harmonic distortion at grid side of the system is within the limits as per IEEE-519 standard. To test the efficacy of the proposed IT-2 FLC for grid-connected SPV system MATLAB software2016(a) has been used.
