Nowadays, most three-phase, “off the shelf” inverters use electrolytic capacitors at the DC bus to provide short term energy storage. However, this has a direct impact on inverter lifetime and the total cost of the photovoltaic system. This article proposes a novel control strategy called a 120° bus clamped PWM (120BCM). The 120BCM modulates the DC bus and uses a smaller DC bus capacitor value, which is typical for film capacitors. Hence, the inverter lifetime can be increased up to the operational lifetime of the photovoltaic panels. Thus, the total cost of ownership of the PV system will decrease significantly. Furthermore, the proposed 120BCM control strategy modulates only one phase current at a time by using only one leg to perform the modulation. As a result, switching losses are significantly reduced. The full system setup is designed and presented in this paper with some practical results.

Hybrid energy storage system (HESS) including battery and super-capacitor can take advantages of both high energy density and high power density. In the stand-alone PV micro-grid, in which two buck/boost bidirectional converters are connected to the DC bus directly, a novel energy management scheme is proposed. After filtering the fluctuating power of the HESS, charge and discharge currents of the battery are controlled by hysteresis control method, the super-capacitor supplies the difference of the power. To leveling off the fluctuating power output of photovoltaic system and control the voltage of the DC bus, a new control strategy applied to the bidirectional converter of the super capacitor is put forward. The feed-forward loops of input voltage, load current and output voltage are introduced to improve the response speed and stability of the system. Results of the simulation show the effectiveness of the proposed energy management and control strategy.
