In grid-connected mode, the microinverter must inject electrical power; on the other hand, in island mode, the microinverter must deliver an appropriate ac voltage to local loads.
Other control techniques are as follows: The paper presents a two-stage microinverter and it consists of dc-dc triple active bridge (TAB) converter that integrates back-up battery; and the second stage is a voltage source inverter (VSI) that operates in both grid-connected mode (GCM) and stand-alone mode (SAM).
A microinverter with hybrid mode is presented and consists of a control strategy that allows the system to operate in both continuous and discontinuous mode. The advantages of operating in hybrid mode is the stress reduction faced by the primary and secondary part of the transformer . The control strategy is presented in Figure 21.
The control strategy consists in non-linear control techniques based of the non-linear average model of microinverter. The paper presents a boost inverter and it consists of two boost dc-dc converters connected in differential mode to the grid. The control technique consists of a PI control for power reference and a flatness-based control.
The paper presents a multi-level single phase microinverter and its control strategy consists in a model predictive control to reduce the steady state error of the grid-injected current. Another control technique used in this microinverter is the PI controller with PR controller proposed in .
The variables to be controlled in the microinverter are the inductor currents ( and ) used as a filter, the dc-link voltage and the currents injected into the grid ( ). Figure 7 presents the control strategy.
It should be noted that in inverter technologies, there has been an increasing interest to achieve robust output power injection capabilities with lesser design complexity in terms of controller part and power circuit topology. Micro-inverters (MIs) are module based type of inverters that have aroused much interest in recent years.
