In this paper, we developed an algorithm to detect arc of PV power plant through frequency analysis. For arc detection based on frequency analysis, the filter should be designed to emphasize the difference between the arc state and the normal state. Therefore, in this paper, we analyzed the arc detection performance according to various filter structures. The arc detection algorithm developed in this paper extracts the filtering signal on current by using various filters and then calculates the frequency components and total energy using the FFT. In the final step, the arc is detected using the calculated energy magnitude. In order to verify the performance of the proposed arc detection algorithm, experiments were conducted on 51 kW solar inverters connected to power line. Through various experiments, it was confirmed that the proposed method effectively detects the arc.

A coupled inductor-dual boost-inverter (CIDBI) with a differential structure has been presented for application to a micro-inverter photovoltaic module system due to its turn ratio of a high-voltage level. However, it is difficult to design a CIDBI converter with a conventional PI regulator to be stable and achieve good dynamic performance, given the fact that it is a high order system. In view of this situation, a sliding mode control (SMC) strategy is introduced in this paper, and two different sliding mode controllers (SMCs) are proposed and adopted in the left and right side of two Boost sub-circuits to implement the corresponding regulation of the voltage and current. The schemes of the SMCs have been elaborated in this paper including the establishment of a system variable structure model, selection of the sliding surface, determination of the control law, and presentation of the reaching conditions and sliding domain. Finally, the mathematic analysis and the proposed SMC are verified by experimental results.

본 논문은 계통 전압 보조를 위한 분산전원용 인버터의 Volt/VAR 및 Volt/Watt 제어 방법을 소개한다. 태양광 발전(Photovoltaics, PV), 소수력 발전과 같은 분산전원이 증가함에 따라 양방향 전력 흐름이 일반화 되며, 양방향 전력 흐름으로 인한 PCC (Point of common coupling) 전압 변동이 발생하여 계통에 악영향을 줄 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 전압 변동을 줄여 계통을 보조할 수 있는 분산전원용 인버터의 Volt/VAR 및 Volt/Watt 제어를 소개하며, 관련 규정 및 제어 조건을 명시하고 시뮬레이션을 통해 검증한다.

태양광 인버터는 항상 태양전지 어레이의 최대 전력을 추종하며 동작해야 한다. 또한 태양광 인버터는 폭넓은 태양전지의 최대 전력점 전압과 관계없이 최대 전력점을 추종해야 한다. 태양전지의 전류리플이 발생한다면 최대 전력점 추종 기능이 저하되고 일사량 변동이나 최대 전력점 변동 시 정상적으로 추종하기 어려워진다. 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위해 본 논문에서는 고효율의 새로운 최대 전력점 추종 알고리즘과 태양전지의 전류리플 감소 알고리즘을 제안하였다. 4KW급 계통연계형 태양광 인버터에 적용하여 실험한 결과 최대 전력점 추종 효율이 99.97%, 인버터 출력 효율은 97.5%, 인버터 전류의 고조파 총 왜곡률은 1.05%로 우수한 성능을 보였다. 또한 0.5초 동안 일사량을 100% -> 10%, 10% -> 100%로 급격히 변동하였을 때에도 안정된 최대 전력점 추종이 가능함을 알 수 있었다.

Grid-connected inverters (GCIs) based on renewable energy sources play an important role in enhancing the sustainability of a society. Harmonic standards, such as IEEE 519 and P1547, which require the total harmonic distortion (THD) of the output current to be less than 5%, should be satisfied when GCIs are connected to a grid. However, achieving a current THD of less than 5% is difficult for GCIs with an output filter under a distorted grid condition. In this study, a novel harmonic compensation method that uses a digital lock-in amplifier (DLA) is proposed to eliminate harmonics effectively at the output of GCIs. Accurate information regarding harmonics can be obtained due to the outstanding performance of DLA, and such information is used to eliminate harmonics with a simple proportional-integral controller in a feedforward manner. The validity of the proposed method is verified through experiments with a 5 kW single-phase GCI connected to a real grid.

This paper studies a model to diagnose efficiency reduction of inverter using Multilayer Perceptron(MLP). In this study, two inverter data which started operation at different day was used. A Multilayer Perceptron model was made to predict photovoltaic power data of the latest inverter. As a result of the model's performance test, the Mean Absolute Percentage Error(MAPE) was 4.1034. The verified model was applied to one-year-old and two-year-old data after old inverter starting operation. The predictive power of one-year-old inverter was larger than the observed power by 724.9243 on average. And two-year-old inverter's predictive value was larger than the observed power by 836.4616 on average. The prediction error of two-year-old inverter rose 111.5572 on a year. This error is 0.4% of the total capacity. It was proved that the error is meaningful difference by t-test. The error is predicted value minus actual value. Which means that PV system actually generated less than prediction. Therefore, increasing error is decreasing conversion efficiency of inverter. Finally, conversion efficiency of the inverter decreased by 0.4% over a year using this model.

The object of this paper is the controller for supplying stably power in a separate house in which a hybrid electrical storage system with a stand-alone photovoltaic/wind power generation system and a small generator is applied. In the photovoltaic/wind hybrid power system used in the separate house, when only the battery is used in sunless days, the capacity of the battery is become larger. In particular, as in recent days, if cloudy days are frequent due to anomaly climate, it is difficult to estimate the number of sunless days. Accordingly, it is preferable to build the electrical storage system that numbers of sunshineless days are to be controlled and a shortage amount of the power generation capacity is to be handled by a small generator system. In order to supply stably power of new renewable energy such as solar to any separate houses, it is preferable to reduce the capacity of battery by decreasing the number of sunless days when estimating the capacity of battery and to drive the small generator for compensation of the power shortage. Such system needs components including inverters for photovoltaic and wind power generation system, batteries and controllers for automatically driving the small generator, based upon the nature of the stand-alone house, and it is preferable to use the controller having a simpler and higher stability by adopting the all-in-one scheme to facilitate its maintenance.
