Grid-Connected Solar PV System with Maximum Power Point Tracking and Battery Energy Storage Integrated with Sophisticated Three-Level NPC Inverter
In this research, a solar photovoltaic system with maximum power point tracking (MPPT) and battery storage is integrated into a grid-connected system using an improved three-level neutral-point-clamped (NPC) inverter. An NPC inverter with adjustable neutral-point clamping may achieve this result. To...

description | In this research, a solar photovoltaic system with maximum power point tracking (MPPT) and battery storage is integrated into a grid-connected system using an improved three-level neutral-point-clamped (NPC) inverter. An NPC inverter with adjustable neutral-point clamping may achieve this result. To achieve this result, a modernized NPC inverter is used. Using the three-level vector modulation approach, the correct AC voltage may be generated when DC voltage conditions are present in an unbalanced situation involving an NPC inverter. A higher degree of precision is made possible by this. In-depth information on the many possible NPC inverter designs and modulation strategies was provided. By incorporating the necessary sophisticated algorithms into the NPC inverter, the necessary solar PV-MPPT functionality is made available, allowing for the regulation of power transfer among the solar PV system, the battery, and the grid. Modified INC method is proposed which has a tracking efficiency of 99.5% for varying irradiance. The use of sufficiently sophisticated algorithms makes this a reality. Using simulation with MATLAB/Simulink, we were able to examine an NPC inverter’s performance in several setups. Several amounts of solar irradiation were used to test the battery’s charging and discharging capabilities. The probe turned out to be fruitful. Laboratory testing ensures that the proposed method works by simulating real-world conditions. |
