Abstract

The present paper focuses on the use of the Multilevel Current Rectifier topology as an interconnection element between PV systems and the network or loads. In order to properly use the converter in connection with the PV system, several subjects such as the compatibility with the maximum power point tracking and the compatibility between the converter and the PV array must be taken into account. Compatibility between the converter and the PV array can be achieved by ensuring at least the maximum power point is a point that the converter can work with. In this sense, this work focuses on the operating conditions to guarantee the compatibility with the PV array. The main results are an analytical and experimental characterization of the operating range of the system using the Multilevel Current Rectifier. This operating range has a precision of 1 % . Leading to the conclution that not only the converter is a viable option, but also that the theory and methodology used can be extrapolated to another topologies.
