Abstract

In modular multilevel converter (MMC), the sub modules which perform switching actions, it may produce higher order harmonics when involved with fluctuating capacitor voltages and when it gets superimposed with the circulating currents, it will increase their magnitude which results into increased system losses. In this research work, we have implemented a repetitive control scheme which consists of three components: PI controller, moving average filter and repetitive controller. It is applied to MMC equipped with fuzzy controlled logic, which controls the harmonics by suppressing them up to a significant level. The proposed model is designed for three phase applications and the simulation results clearly define the effectiveness of the control mechanism. Photovoltaic’s (PV) is a method of generating electrical power by converting sunlight into direct current electricity using semiconducting materials that exhibit the photovoltaic effect. A photovoltaic system employs solar panels composed of a number of solar cells to supply usable solar power. Power generation from solar PV has long been seen as a clean sustainable [1] energy technology which draws upon the planet’s most plentiful and widely distributed renewable energy source – the sun. The direct conversion of sunlight to electricity occurs without any moving parts or environmental emissions during operation.
