This paper presents an operation of photovoltaic (PV)-based shunt active filter (SAF) for significant energy conservation, harmonic mitigation and reactive power compensation. When the PV system generates excessive or equal power required to the load demand, then the coordinating logic disconnects the service grid from the load and with a consequent reduction of panel tariff and global warming gasses. The PV module is connected to the DC side of SAF through the DC–DC converter. Converter switch is controlled by fuzzy-based perturb & observe (P&O) maximum power point tracking (MPPT) algorithm and it eliminates the drawback in the conventional PV system. The reference currents are extracted by the fuzzy logic controller-based ICos Φ control strategy. This proposed PV-SAF, if connected at the terminals of a small industry or a home or a small enlightening institution can avoid the use of interruptible power supply and individual stabilizer. An emulation using MATLAB Simulink is presented to validate the advantage of the proposed system.

The power quality problem in the power system is increased with the use of non-linear devices. Due to the use of non-linear devices like power electronic converters, there is an increase in harmonic content in the source current. Due to this there is an increase in the losses, instability and poor voltage waveform. To mitigate the harmonics and provide the reactive power compensation, we use filters. There are different filters used in the power system. Passive filters provide limited compensation, so active filters can be used for variable compensation. In this work, a shunt active filter has been made adaptive using a Variable Leaky Least Mean Square (VLLMS) based controller. Proposed adaptive controller can be able to compensate for harmonic currents, power factor and nonlinear load unbalance. DC capacitor voltage has been regulated at a desired level using a PI controller and a self-charging circuit technique. But, this scheme as two disadvantages such as, tuning issues of current controller pre-requisites the traditional PI controller, which is controlled by intelligent based Hybrid-Fuzzy-Logic controller for achieving good performance features. The design concept of proposed intelligent Hybrid-Fuzzy controller for shunt active filter has been verified through simulation analysis and results are presented with proper comparisons.

Commencing with incandescent light bulb, every load today creates harmonics. Unfortunately, these loads vary with respect to their amount of harmonic content and response to problems caused by harmonics. Issue of Harmonics are of a greater concern to engineers, building designers and in industrial applications because they do more than distort voltage waveforms, they can overheat the building wiring, cause nuisance tripping, overheat transformer units, and cause random end-user equipment failures. Thus power quality has become more and more serious with each passing day. As a result active power filter (APF) gains much more attention due to excellent harmonic compensation. But still the performance of the active filter seems to be in contradictions with different control techniques. The main objective of this paper is to analyse shunt active filter with fuzzy and pi controllers. To carry out the analysis, we consider active and reactive power method (p-q). Extensive simulations were carried out; simulations were performed with balance, unbalanced and non sinusoidal conditions. Simulation results validate the dynamic behaviour of fuzzy logic controller over pi controller.
