<p>Solar PV system development and integration with existing grid is very fast in recent years all over the world, as they require limited maintenance, pollution free and simple structure. When observing the factors affecting the performance of the grid connected solar photovoltaic system, the inverter output voltage with harmonics add with the harmonics generated due to the non-linear loads, retain a bigger challenge to maintain power quality in the grid. To maintain grid power quality, better inverter control technique should be developed. This paper presents the two control techniques for grid-tied inverters. This study developed the hysteresis controller for the inverter. Hysteresis controller used in this work two way (i) Voltage control mode (ii) Current control mode. Matlab/Simulink model is developed for the proposed system. Further the study presents the comparative evaluation of the performance of both control techniques based on the percentage of total harmonic distortion (THD) with the limits specified by the standards such as IEEE 1547 and IEC 61727 and IEEE Std 519-2014</p>
