Active and Reactive Power Control for Grid-Connected PV Systems Using Cascaded Multilevel Converters
Journal Title: IOSR Journals (IOSR Journal of Electrical and Electronics Engineering) - Year 2017, Vol 12, Issue 4
Abstract
Photovoltaic (PV) panels generator module is the widely used system solar generated powers are cascaded and connected to the grid with a constant AC supply .pv cell which gets subjected to various intensities of sun light cannot supply a constant DC voltage. A traditional method to avoid this problem is to control either of active or reactive power to control this voltage. This paper concentrates on the control of both active and reactive powers using DC-DC Converters with MPPT technique to keep the output DC voltage without fluctuations. PI controller is used to apply this MPPT technique. A comparative study of the traditional method with the proposed system has been made with the help of MATLAB Simulation
