Abstract

This paper presents the structure of an electrical energy generation plant based on photovoltaic panels and applied to a house. In this analysis, the house is assumed connected to the electrical grid; therefore it is fed from both sources. The connection to the grid avoids the use of electrochemical batteries as an energy storage system. The photovoltaic equipment supplies energy to the house-utility system by means of a parallel connection, operating as a current source. This work is focused on the modelling and control of the inverter used to implement this connection. Additional features like active filtering and unity power factor are applied to this design. Consequently, the current provided by the grid is sinusoidal and in phase with the utility voltage. In the case of an excess of electrical production from the photovoltaic panels, the energy is transferred to the grid. © 2005 IEEE.
