Abstract

This study presents the power quality issue mainly focus the effect of total harmonic distortion (THD) on a grid-connected PV system. Firstly, a grid-connected PV system with a single-phase single-stage has been developed to monitor the output values of voltage and current and also its harmonic distortion behaviours. Maximum power point tracking (MPPT) was implemented since it is proven as the first step for THD reduction because MPPT will extract maximum output power, voltage, and current of the PV system without fluctuation which leads to a low THD level. Furthermore, the employment of a good filter also reduces the THD level in a PV system. Thus, this study will focus on the THD analysis to resolve the power quality problems in the grid-connected PV system. The result shows that the THD value for current, ITHD analysis is more significant than the THD value for voltage, VTHD analysis in the case of grid-connected PV systems operating under different solar irradiances. In a conclusion, the increase in solar irradiance will increase the rated values of generated power and current thus, increasing the performance of THD values.

Abstract

A grid-connected photovoltaic (GCPV) system plays an important role in the development of green technology. However, generated photovoltaic (PV) power that is injected into the grid causes instability in the grid system. Previous studies have shown that power quality for a three-phase system is thoroughly being discussed, but not for a single-phase system. Single-phase system also contribute to instability in low-voltage grid networks during high power penetration as majority of the single-phase GCPV nowadays are installed on rooftops. Thus, in this study, the power quality of a single-phase single-stage GCPV system is investigated based on the total harmonic distortion (THD), power factor (PF), and the generated active (P) and reactive (Q) power during different solar irradiance and varying loads conditions. A model of the GCPV system was developed in MATLAB/Simulink, so that certain variables can be varied to observe their effect towards the power quality. The results show that the current and voltage of generated PV power are synchronized and having low current THD which is less than 1% for all cases. PF values are also in the acceptable range in compliance to IEC 61727 standard which is 0.9971, and the generated PQ is in accordance to the connected load.
