This paper reviews both conventional and artificial intelligence (AI)-based control methods for GCPI. It compares their performance characteristics, application scenarios, and limitations and summarizes current research progress and remaining challenges. Grid-connected PV inverters (GCPI) are key components that enable photovoltaic (PV) power generation to interface with the grid.
