Islanding of PV systems can cause a variety of problems and must be prevented. However, if the real and active powers of RLC load and PV system are closely matched, islanding detection by passive methods becomes difficult. Active methods enables islanding detection by forcing the frequency of the voltage in the island to drift up/down. This paper shows the simulation and comparision by Matlab for the active methods.

Economic and environmental concerns over fossil fuels encourage the development of photovoltaic(PV) energy systems. Due to the intermittent nature of solar energy. energy storage is needed in a stand-alone PV system for the purpose of ensuring continuous power flow. Grid-connected PV system that supply power in a critical load demand require to curb power fluctuation. In this case. SCB is a effectiveness in controlling power variation due to intrinsic PV system. We propose the Matlab/Simulink dynamic model and power flow characteristics of a hybrid energy system with PV and SCB.

This paper proposes the PLL(Phase-Locked Loop) algorithm by a new FFT(Fast Fourier Transform) in a grid-connected PV PCS(Photovoltaics Power Conditionning System). The grid-connected inverter that is applied in a new renewable energy field needs the grid phase information for synchronism. Unlike the PLL which is normally used by three phase D-Q conversion, the preposed PLL algorithm using FFT has non-gain tuning and the powerful noise elimination by the characteristics of FFT. Both simulation and experimental result show that proposed algorithm has the good capacity.

In this paper, novel concept of a photovoltaic(PV) power generation system adding the function of active filter(AF) is proposed. Even PV power generation system can be treated to a harmonics source for the power distribution system, it is necessary that the function of AF system in grid connected PV power generation system. Active Filters intended for harmonic solutions are expending their functions from harmonic compensation of nonlinear loads into harmonic isolation between utilities and consumer, and harmonic damping throughout power distribution system. So, the PV system combined the function of AF system can be usefully applied in power distribution system. Here, the control strategy of PV-AF system is introduced.

Grid-connected bidirectional PCS(Power Conditioning System) technology is a technology for implementing distributed renewable energy smart grid. And it is always charged by using power collected from solar modules and commercial grid power among vast smart grid systems, and stored when needed.It is a hybrid energy storage device that allows power to be released into the low voltage system. To this end, a PV input power converter with MPPT function, a bidirectional power converter for battery charging and discharging, and a DC Link input are output to a 3 phase 380V AC system, and if nessary, the bidirectional DC/DC converter We designed and developed a PCS with three power converter structures composed of inverters that perform battery charging. Currently, this system is applied to the site of Jeju, which is vulnerable to power outages and fire accidents.

Solar energy is desirable due to its renewable and pollution-free properties. In order to utilize the present utility grid infrastructure for power transmission and distribution, a do-dc boost converter and grid connected dc-to-ac inverters are needed for solar power generation. The dc-dc boost converter allows the PV system to operate at high do-link voltage. The single-phase inverter provides the necessary voltage and frequency for interconnection to the grid. In this paper, first, current loop transfer function of a single-phase grid-tie inverter has been systematically derived Second the MPPT of conductance increment method at converter side is proposed to supply the maximum power to the inverter side. Simulation results are shown to access the performance of PV system and its behaviour at the interconnection point.

This paper presents a grid-connected photovoltaic (PV) system with direct coupled power quality control (PQC) algorithm, which uses an inner current control loop (PRT : polarized ramp time) and outer feedback control loop to improve grid power quality and maximum power point tracking (MPPT) of PV arrays. To reduce the complexity, cost and number of power conversions, which results in higher efficiency, single stage CCVSI (Current Controlled Voltage Source Inverter) is used. The proposed system operation has been divided into two modes (sunny and night). In night mode, the proposed system operates to compensate the reactive power demanded by nonlinear or variation in loads. in sunny mode, the proposed system performs PQC to reduce harmonic current and improve power factor as well as MPPT to supply active power from the PV arrays simultaneously. it is shown that the proposed system improves the system utilization factor to 100% which is generally low for PV system (20%). To verify the proposed system, a comprehensive evaluation with theoretical analysis and simulation results are presented.
