Photovoltaic (PV) grid-connected system requires the inverter possesses excellent dynamic and static characteristics. In the view of the mathematical model of the inverter is nonlinear, we will adopt a kind of nonlinear control strategy called Passivity–Based Control (PBC). First we establish the standard Euler – Lagrange (EL) mode for inverter, then we also prove that this inverter is strictly passive. Based on passivity of inverter, we can redistribute the system energy, and adopt the approaches of injecting damping and decoupling to improve system performance. In this paper, we can control the active and reactive power of system to make system can fast track the PV array maximum power point, and possess the capacity of compensating the reactive power. Simulation results show that passivity-based control method can make the inverter possess better robustness and dynamic.

To realize the maximum power output of a grid-connected inverter, the MPPT (maximum power point tracking) control method is needed. The perturbation and observation (P&O) method can cause the inverter operating point to oscillate near the maximum power. In this paper, the fuzzy control P&O method is proposed, and the fuzzy control algorithm is applied to the disturbance observation method. The simulation results of the P&O method with fuzzy control and the traditional P&O method prove that not only can the new method reduce the power loss caused by inverter oscillation during maximum power point tracking, but also it has the advantage of speed. Inductive loads in the post-grid-connected stage cause grid-connected current distortion. A fuzzy control algorithm is added to the traditional deadbeat grid-connected control method to improve the quality of the system’s grid-connected operation. The fuzzy deadbeat control method is verified by experiments, and the harmonic current of the grid-connected current is less than 3%.

The simulation model of PV module, which is based on Simulink software, the mathematical model and the equivalent circuit of PV module, is established in this paper. This PV module model can be used to show the output characteristics of PV module under different irradiations and temperatures. Moreover, this model can be extended to various parameters of PV modules and used to study parallel and serial characteristics of PV module. The output characteristics of PV module, which is affected greatly by light irradiation and ambient temperature, has obvious non-linear features. Therefore, a maximum power point tracker (MPPT) is needed. Compared with perturbation and observation (P&Q) control method and other MPPT control methods, incremental conductance (IncCond) method may be unease to be adopted because it needs a high-performance controller which is costliness. However, as IncCond method is suitable for the irradiation situation of both rapid and slow changes, it has important research meanings. Meanwhile, aiming at the disadvantage of a fixed tracking step size, a improved control method is put forward and simulated in this paper. Finally the simuliation results verify the accuracy and superiority of the improved IncCond method.

A synergetic sliding mode (SSM) approach is designed to address the drawbacks of the direct field-oriented control (DFOC) of the induction generators (IGs) integrated into variable speed dual-rotor wind power (DRWP) systems with the maximum power point tracking (MPPT) technique. Using SSM controllers in the DFOC strategy, the active power, electromagnetic torque, and reactive power ripples are reduced compared to traditional DFOC using proportional-integral (PI) controllers. This proposed strategy, associated with SSM controllers, produces efficient state estimation. The effectiveness of the designed DFOC strategy has been evaluated on variable speed DRWP systems with the MPPT technique.

As the energy crisis and the pollution are serious, the exploitation of solar has received more and more attentions. It is well known that for a given solar radiation intensity and solar cell temperature there exists a maximum power point at which the power generated from the PV panel is at its maximum. In order to improve the efficiency of the system, the main method is to regulate the output of array to develop the maximum power point tracking (MPPT). In this paper the principle and control method of DC/DC conversion in grid-connected photovoltaic system are experimentally discussed. The conductance incremental method is analyzed in detail, and an improved variable step-size control method is implemented for MPPT with pulse width modulation. The experimental results prove the feasibility and correctness of the control method.
