An adaptive control of voltage source converter based scheme for grid connected solar PV - battery system

This paper presents an adaptive back propagation learning scheme for three phase four wire grid integrated solar PV - battery microgrid feeding three phase and single phase nonlinear loads simultaneously. The proposed power quality improved 3 phase 4 wire solar PV - battery micogrid is capable of delivering highly non-sinusoidal currents to nonlinear and unbalance loads of different types such that single and three phase industrial and domestic loads, while the source currents in all three phases remains balanced and sinusoidal. An adaptive back propagation learning scheme is used to control the microgrid voltage control and power quality improvement under various loading conditions through mitigation of harmonic currents, reactive power compensation and active power balancing in the system. It also improve the system power factor in highly nonlinear and unbalanced loading conditions. The proposed scheme significantly improves the steady state and dynamic performances of the 3 phase 4 wire grid integrated solar PV - battery micogrid system.
