Abstract
To ease the heavy burden of inverter control, including line current regulation, harmonic current suppression, filter resonance suppression, grid distortion suppression, phase locked loop etc., the study proposes a master–slave current regulation method for an LCL-filter-based grid-connected inverter operating under variable grid condition. The proposed system is composed of a grid-connected voltage-source inverter (GC-VSI) in series with a bidirectional voltage-source converter (B-VSC) at the inverter output. The GC-VSI is responsible for line current regulation, while the B-VSC takes charge of harmonic current suppression and grid impedance cancellation. Owing to low volt-ampere of the B-VSC, the efficiency of the inverter system is not sacrificed. To confirm its validity, a simulation platform with the proposed inverter system has been built. The simulation results demonstrate the performance enhancement of the proposed inverter system operating under different grid conditions.
