This paper proposes a new methodology to control the power flow between a distributed generator (DG) and the electrical power distribution grid. It is used the droop voltage control to manage the active and reactive power. ...

This paper presents a flexible control technique for power electronics converters, which can function as an active power filter, as a local power supply interface, or perform both functions simultaneously. Thus, it can ...

A new active compensation scheme to eliminate current harmonic components and compensate reactive power for high current non-linear loads is presented and analyzed. The new active compensation technique is based in a series ...

A series active power filter, working as a sinusoidal current source, in phase with the mains voltage, has been developed and tested. The amplitude of the fundamental current in the series filter is controlled through the ...

In this work it is proposed to validate an evolutionary tuning algorithm in plants composed by a grid connected inverter. The optimization aims the tuning of the slopes of P-Ω and Q-V curves so that the system is stable, ...

A different approach for controlling a shunt active power filter is presented. The DC link is controlled with fuzzy logic, and the current generated for the filter to compensate harmonics and power factor is not sensed. ...

Wind generation (WG) is the most widespread renewable energy resource in the world. However, this implementation inevitably leads to an increase in the problems caused by WG, e.g. frequency oscillations, power fluctuations ...
