Abstract:

Photovoltaic power generation system is easy to be affected by the environment and load changes, which will generate frequency and power fluctuations in the process of grid connection. The traditional PI control method is slow in response and poor in stability. To solve this problem, a new robust droop control design method is proposed in this study. An integral sliding mode controller is designed in the double closed-loop current inner loop control structure of bi-directional interconnected converter. The designed controller can not only suppress the voltage and frequency fluctuation of photovoltaic power generation system in the process of grid connection, but also ensure the stability of power system in different environmental conditions. The simulation results in MATLAB/Simulink show that the new robust droop control method is faster than the traditional PI control, and the fluctuation amplitude is reduced by nearly half, which ensures the continuous and stable operation of the grid after the photovoltaic power generation system is connected to the grid.
