Get StartedGenerally, the output power of photovoltaic (PV) inverter will match the load requirement. And at the beginning of the design the load power is less than the maximum output power of PV cells to ensure the system operation stable when the PV inverter operates in islanded mode. However, it causes the energy waste of PV cells.
In the PV inverter control methods based on droop control, the PV cells are generally assumed as constant voltage dc power supply with an infinite capacity by most scholars. However, the PV power is often fluctuant due to the intermittency and weather factors. Thus, this assumption ignores some problems in practical operation of PV inverters.
The power imbalance, i.e., the difference between the value PPVmax1 of MPO-PV and output power of PV inverter 1, can be fed to a PI controller of power loop, and then output of the PI controller can be used as Δ V1, which will always enforce a zero-power imbalance in the steady state.
To enable the maximum utilization of the voltage/current (V/A) rating of the interfacing inverter, an adaptive droop control has been proposed in a PV/battery hybrid system . In the above studies, an auxiliary energy storage system is required to maximize the output power of PV inverter .
To solve the problem of the maximum power output for PV cells in parallel inverter system, a novel droop control method has been proposed in this paper to achieve MPO-PV for parallel inverter system, and the energy utilization ratio of PV inverter has been improved.
