Grid-tied photovoltaic system with series Z-source inverter

摘要

This study presents a grid-tied photovoltaic (PV) system based on the series Z-source inverter. The grid-tied current control strategy, the dc-link voltage control, as well as the maximum power point tracking scheme is realised in the single-stage system. The current control strategy is performed based on dq rotating frame. Indirect dc-link control is adopted to achieve constant peak dc-link voltage and thus can simplify the controller design in inversion stage. The overall control strategy is given and analysed in detail. Simulation and experimental results demonstrate that the proposed system can be applied in PV system with a wide input voltage range, which verify the correctness and validity of the analysis.
