Reactive Power Compensation and Power Injection through Distributed Generation Sources
Journal Title: Journal of Advanced Research in Power Electronics & Power Systems - Year 2017, Vol 4, Issue 1
Abstract
Renewable energy resources are connected in distribution systems to achieving benefits. A control strategy to consummate favor from these grid-interfacing inverters when installed in 3-phase 4-wire distribution systems is presented here. This inverter is designed to perform multi-functions by incorporating active power filter functionality. The inverter can thus be used as: 1) power converter which injects power originated from wind to the grid, and 2) shunt APF to compensate unbalance current, load reactive power demand, load current harmonics, and load neutral current. All of these functions can be done either individually or simultaneously. With this control strategy, the combination of grid-interfacing inverter and the 3-phase 4-wire linear/non-linear unbalanced load at point of common coupling appears as balanced linear load to the grid. This concept is verified with spacious MATLAB/Simulink simulation studies.
