Problems solved by technology

However, traditional multi-level inverters use a large number of diodes and capacitors, and the DC capacitors of flying-capacitor and diode-clamped inverters still have voltage equalization problems.
In addition, the output voltage of photovoltaic power generation units usually cannot meet the grid-connected requirements. Factors such as sunlight, temperature, and shadow may cause the maximum power point voltage to decrease, while traditional multi-level inverters do not have a boost function.

Abstract

The invention provides a high-gain low-stress photovoltaic multi-level inverter According to the inverter, four-time voltage gain and 17-level alternating-current voltage output are realized by using one photovoltaic direct-current power supply, three capacitors and fifteen switching devices. The inverter can generate more levels with fewer switching devices, so that the output harmonic content of the inverter is effectively reduced; the inversion process can be realized without a rear-end H bridge, so that the voltage stress of a switching device is effectively reduced; and the bidirectional current loop in each output level state realizes the capability of carrying an inductive load. In addition, the capacitor voltage ripple of the inverter is small, and the complexity of the controller is simplified due to the advantage of self-balancing of the capacitor voltage.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a high-gain, low-stress photovoltaic multilevel inverter and a control method thereof, belonging to the field of electric energy conversion and new energy power generation, and in particular to the field of photovoltaic power generation. Background technique [0002] Renewable energy is widely used, and the demand for renewable energy in countries around the world is also increasing day by day. Renewable energy power generation, such as photovoltaic power generation, has become an increasingly important way of power generation. The DC power generated by the photovoltaic cell module needs to be powered by the inverter or connected to the AC grid, so a high-performance inverter is very important in the photovoltaic power generation system. [0003] Compared with two-level inverters, multi-level inverters have less electromagnetic interference and can output higher-quality sinusoidal waveforms while withstanding higher voltages. ...
