Abstract

This paper investigates the operation of a PV unit which is connected via a three-phase voltage-source inverter to the grid. The PV grid-connected control system is mainly related to a few key issues that are characteristics of photovoltaic cells, maximum power point tracking and grid-connected control of three-phase inverter. The control strategy of the three-phase PV grid-connected system is analyzed and studied by simulative experiment in this paper. A mathematical model of solar cells is established. Then the algorithms based on perturb & observe to track maximum power point is used. The structure of three-phase PV grid-connected system is introduced, and the current control method with Space Vector pulse width modulation (SVPWM) is examined and compared to other current control methods. The p-q theory is used to achieve uninterrupted compensation of the reactive power of the system. Simulative results on Matlab/Simulink software illustrate the reliability and superiority of this control strategy.
