Enhanced Grid Integration of PV Systems Using Double-Stage Configuration and PUC7 Inverter Controlled by MPC
摘要
The paper introduces a double-stage, single-phase photovoltaic (PV) system connected to the grid using a packed U-cell seven-level (PUC7) inverter, governed by Model Predictive Control (MPC). This system aims to optimize grid integration by achieving enhanced current injection with minimal Total Harmonic Distortion (THD), reactive power compensation, and efficient extraction and injection of maximum power from the PV source. Simulation results underscore the efficacy of the proposed control strategy in enhancing power quality, responsiveness, and accuracy across varying weather conditions, thereby validating the feasibility and robustness of the proposed PV system.
