The need for a cleaner environment and the continuous increase in power demands makes renewable energy production like solar and wind increasingly interesting. Energy production using solar energy could be a solution for the ever increasing power demands. This demand overloads the distribution grids as well as the power stations having a negative impact on power quality and availability. One solution to this problem is grid-connected photovoltaic (PV) systems. A PV array has an optimum operating point, known as the maximum power point, which varies according to cell temperature and insulation level and array voltage. A maximum power point tracker (MPPT) is needed to operate the PV array at the optimal point enabling the system to extract the maximum amount of energy available. Once the system is in place it can be either connected to a charge a battery or to the grid through an inverter. This research explores the different methods for modeling a PV array and simulates in Simulink a comprehensivemodel of a PV cell that can be expanded into arrays, modules and panels, allowing the user to edit the PV model based solely on the datasheet parameters. This model is coupled to a DC-DC booster (step up converter). By manipulating the duty cycle of the DC-DC booster the system implements two of the most popular MPPT methods to extract maximum power: Incremental Conductance and Perturb and Observe. The model is then tested under various conditions for different loads, irradiance and temperature comparing it to the values provided by the manufacture's datasheet. The system is then connected to either a Single Phase Inverter or a Three Phase Inverter implemented in Simulink. The final step is the grid synchronization through two proposed methods of NREL: voltage control and current control. Several simulations were performed to make sure the system complied with all IEEE 1547 standards. The overall PV model system has an efficiency of 98.2% with the best performance under the Incremental Conductance algorithm. The inverter model complies with all IEEE 1547 standards varying a maximum of 5% under different testing conditions.

There is currently significant growth in the number of residential scale grid connected photovoltaic (PV) systems. Generally, if environmental costs are not accounted for, the cost of generation from PV sources remains high compared to conventionally generated electricity. There is, therefore, a strong incentive to reduce the cost of PV systems and improve their efficiency while satisfying injected power quality standards. The focus has been on the power electronic single phase converter bridge which is typically used as interface between the DC output of the PV panels and the terminals of the AC network. One of the two main objectives was to investigate the possibility of operating an inverter connected to the AC grid without an interfacing power transformer, while keeping DC injection into the grid below levels specified by Australian and International Standards. A low cost method of controlling the DC offset content of the current injected into the AC mains has been proposed. A mathematical model of the DC offset controller has been developed and experimentally validated. A design procedure for the controller has also been developed. The second objective was to investigate the dependence of efficiency on inverter switching strategies such as bipolar and unipolar switching. It was confirmed by specially designed tests that unipolar switching meant significantly lower switching losses when compared with bipolar switching. However, the quality of current injected into the AC mains in the case of unipolar switching was not considered acceptable because of significant current distortion near the AC mains voltage zero crossing. A new method of inverter switching has been proposed which exploits the efficiency advantage of unipolar switching while avoiding the problem of current distortion. The main outcomes of this project are a DC offset controller which allow transformerless operation and an inverter switching strategy that results in significantly reduced switching losses while maintaining the quality of injected current. Implementation of the proposed DC offset controller and inverter switching strategy will result in both capital cost savings and higher conversion efficiency.

The current model for electricity generation and distribution is dominated by centralized power plants which are typically associated with combustion (coal, oil, and natural gas) or nuclear generation units. These power models require distribution from the center to outlying consumers and have many disadvantages concerning the electric utilities, transmission and distribution, and greenhouse gas emissions. This resulted in the modelling and development of cleaner renewable power generation with alternative sources such as photovoltaic (PV), wind, and other sources. Further, due to matured PV technology, constant drop-in installation cost, greenhouse emissions reductions, energy efficiency, reduced transmission and distribution investments, minimization of electric losses, and network support, the development of PV systems is proliferating. In view of this development, this book provides an idea for setting up the PV plant from initial study of the site to plan sizing. Once the first planning is covered, the book focuses on the modeling aspects of power electronics converter and control elements associated with it keeping the operating standards specified for the development of distributed generation systems in check. This book will be useful for industrial professionals and researchers who are working toward modeling of PV plants, and their control in grid connected operation. All the necessary information related to these fields is available in the book.

The demand for alternative energy sources fuels the need for electric power and controls engineers to possess a practical understanding of transformers suitable for solar energy. Meeting that need, Distributed Photovoltaic Grid Transformers begins by explaining the basic theory behind transformers in the solar power arena, and then progresses to describe the development, manufacture, and sale of distributed photovoltaic (PV) grid transformers, which help boost the electric DC voltage (generally at 30 volts) harnessed by a PV panel to a higher level (generally at 115 volts or higher) once it is inverted to the AC voltage form by the inverter circuit. Packed with real-life scenarios and case studies from around the globe, Distributed Photovoltaic Grid Transformers covers the key design, operation, and maintenance aspects of transformers suitable for solar energy. Topics include islanding, voltage flicker, voltage operating range, frequency and power factor variation, and waveform distortion. Multiple homework questions are featured in each chapter. A solutions manual and downloadable content, such as illustrated examples, are available with qualifying course adoption.

"A two-stage photovoltaic grid-connected microgrid modeling approach is presented in this work. The purpose of the modeling is the behavior study of the microgrid during the low-voltage event on the grid. A complete mathematical model is discussed for each component of the system. The MPPT of the photovoltaic system is integrated with the boost controller to inject the constant current in the DC-link. The boost converter and the inverter control is implemented using the cascaded PI control. A dual second-order generalized integrator (DSOGI) method is implemented for the sequence extraction. The inverter controller is designed to meet the grid-code requirement of low-voltage ride through (LVRT) and reactive power injection. The simulation model is designed in a MATLAB/PLECS environment, and the controller design is validated by running a low-voltage event on the grid. To observe the interaction of a multiple PV system with the grid, a nonlinear average model of the two-stage grid-connected PV system was designed and validated against the switching model. A low voltage event on the grid was simulated to observe the impact on the multiple PV system. A power quality event of voltage dip during the unbalance voltage on the grid is presented. The implication of the ungrounded system during the low-voltage event is explained. In addition, the importance of grounding and the effect of the line impedance for the why-connected system is described in detail"--Abstract, page iii.
