Grid-Connected PV Inverter with reactive power capability is one of the recent developments in the field. These types of inverters can produce reactive power in the absence of solar irradiations; also, if necessary, the inverter can operate with reactive power mode even if the P.V. power is available.
Review of control of a typical grid-connected inverter Grid-connected inverters control the magnitude and angle of their output current to regulate for example their DC-link voltage (active rectifier) or to regulate real and/or reactive power flows (PQ source). Several approaches towards achieving control of real and reactive power exist.
Many novel topologies and their corresponding modulation methods were presented by J. Wang et al. [ 20 ], verified and put into use, solely focusing on active power injection without leakage current issue. However, some new grid codes require P.V. inverters to have the ability to inject reactive power into the utility for grid support.
A low voltage ride-through (LVRT) capable inverters will not only withstand the grid sags but also assist in fault recovery by injecting the reactive power during a sag [, , , , , , ].
Two Quadrant Operation of P.V. Inverter The reactive power control can be made by varying the magnitude and angle of the inverter output voltage (i.e., to adjust θ). In voltage oriented control of inverter, the q-axis current component (I q) is used to control the reactive power output of the inverter and is described in later sections.
During normal conditions, the inverter injects an active power of 1000 W into the grid until a 50% grid sag arrived at 0.2s–0.6 s. During a grid fault period, the MPPT is not disabled, and the reactive power of 450VARs is injected into the grid as shown in Fig. 13.
