Abstract

With the fast development of distributed power generations, stability and security have attracted extensive attention in the recent years. As a representative of clean energies, Photovoltaic (PV) systems have been installed extensively worldwide. This drives grid-connected requirements to be continuously updated. In current active grid requirements/codes, PV systems should be more intelligent in the considerations of the grid stability, reliability and fault protection. In this paper, two control strategies (i.e., the single-phase PQ control and power phase-angle control) are evaluated for grid-connected single-stage single-phase PV systems in the case of Low/Zero Voltage Ride-Through (LVRT/ZVRT) operation. A comparative analysis of the two LVRT/ZVRT control methods for PV systems is presented. Simulation results are presented, which verifies that the LVRT/ZVRT methods can help the PV systems to temporarily ride-through the grid low-/zero-voltage faults. The power phase-angle control method has a better dynamic response.
