Abstract
This paper investigates the dynamic interactions of current controllers for multi-paralleled, grid-connected inverters. The consequent harmonics instability phenomena, which features with oscillations above the fundamental frequency, are evaluated by the impedance-based stability criterion. The frequency range of effective impedance-based stability analysis is first identified. The effect of each inverter on the system harmonic instability is then identified by case studies on different groups of inverters. Lastly, the PSCAD/EMTDC simulations on a system with five passivelydamped, LCL-filtered inverters are performed to verify theoretical analysis. It shows that the impedance-based stability analysis results agree with the time-domain simualtions provided that the frequency of concerns are around the half of the Nyquist sampling frequency.
