Grid-connected PV inverters have traditionally been thought as active power sources with an emphasis on maximizing power extraction from the PV modules. While maximizing power transfer remains a top priority, utility grid stability is now widely acknowledged to benefit from several auxiliary services that grid-connected PV inverters may offer.
PV inverter stands for the most critical part of the entire PV system. Research efforts are now concerned with the enhancement of inverter life span and reliability. Improving the power efficiency target is already an open research topic, as well as power quality.
Because EPC Power sells PV inverters internationally, its products must be certified to North American standards (UL 1741, IEEE 1547, and CSA 22.2) as well as Australian and European safety standards and grid codes, including IEC 62109 and VDE) and quality standards, including ISO 9001:2015.
Emerging and future trends in control strategies for photovoltaic (PV) grid-connected inverters are driven by the need for increased efficiency, grid integration, flexibility, and sustainability.
The role of grid inverters is very critical in feeding power from distributed sources into the grid. With the increasing growth of grid-tied solar PV systems (both rooftop and large-scale), the
