Abstract
This work deals with an implementation of a unique control approach for the power quality enhancement in solar photovoltaic (PV) based grid interfaced system. In this work, a robust control technique with strong filtering capabilities is implemented. A single-phase two-stage grid interacted solar PV topology is considered with a second-order sequence filter as a test system for the validation of the power quality enhancement features. The system constitutes a PV array, a boost converter, a DC link capacitance, a voltage source converter (VSC), an interfacing inductor and a ripple filter. A boost converter is used at a primary stage of proposed topology, which supports the extraction of maximum power from the solar PV array. In addition, the VSC feeds the solar PV power into the grid. It also provides harmonics elimination and power factor correction. A new maximum power point tracking technique avoiding a drift feature is adopted for the fast dynamic performance. The implementation of the solar PV system is performed and the harmonic profile of grid current is observed in compliance to the IEEE-519 standard.
