Abstract

In grid-connected solar panel systems, the power converters play a very im-portant role in control systems, because the characteristics of solar panel system are that the generation power is constantly changing due to dependence on weath-er conditions. This article presents the research results of the application of power electronic converter in grid-connected solar power system. In particular, we focus on building an algorithm to control and simulate the grid-connected solar power system at the DC-BUS stage by setting an optimal set of SVPWM (Space Vector Pulse Width Modulation) modulation frequencies when the pulse width values are different. The simulation results on Matlab/Simulink show that the system op-erates stably, ensures the requirements of DC-BUS grid integration. The set-up system operates safely, has a simple control structure and algorithm, is easy to calibrate and makes it ready for practical applications.
