What is a Grid interactive inverter?

DC Source Inverter AC Grid

Electrical & Electronics Dept. GEC,


TCR 2
Why Grid interactive inverter is required ?
 60% of Energy consumption is from fossil fuel resulting an
emission of 6.5 billion tons of CO2 into atmosphere –
environment pollution, global warming
 Fossil fuel sources like coal, oil etc. are getting depleted
day by day
 Distributed generation with renewable sources (solar
cells, wind power etc.) may be a solution to these problems
 Since power content of these sources are varying and to
make voltage, frequency etc., acceptable to the present
transmission system Grid interactive inverters are
essential

Grid interactive inverter –Requirement of real
and reactive power injection
If grid connected inverter injects active power only, the reactive power required
by the load should be supplied by the AC source leading to a poor power factor
at the source side

Application – example
At present the battery life checking in locomotive has been done by
disconnecting battery  discharging fully again charging  observing
the discharging rate
Using the proposed technique, the charging and discharging of battery
can be performed without disconnecting  by interacting with AC grid

Application –example (cont.)

Photo voltaic source supplies the local DC load


Excess amount of energy can be pumped into AC grid
Shortage of energy on DC side can be met from AC grid

Conclusion

 A simple hysteresis control with constant switching frequency to control the bi-
directional power flow between DC source and AC grid.

 Switching algorithm for bi-directional power control, reactive and harmonic


compensation

 Switching losses are reduced because only two switches are controlled at any instant
of time time.

 Current injected into grid is in phase to the grid voltage in inverter mode and 180 out
of phase with grid voltage in rectifier mode of operation

 Design and implementation of control circuitry

 Implementation of bi-directional real and reactive power control & harmonic


compensation

 Experimental verification of the control scheme
