Influence of Power Converters on Increasing the Share of Renewable Energy Sources
Journal Title: Acta Energetica - Year 2016, Vol 26, Issue 1
Abstract
The article shows various configurations of the topology of grid converters with their control systems, tailored to the needs of the energy market and regulations. Power electronic systems are used for the integration of renewable energy sources with power grids and help to increase the part they play in this network. Of particular note are the multi-channel systems, which form the basis of the modern energy market. They are more efficient and have a higher efficiency than conventional systems. The simulations are performed in the MATLAB/Simulink environment. They consist mainly of an analysis of the high harmonics injected into the grid by converters and analysis of the benefits of implementing the converter with alternating work.
