Generally, a grid-connected PV inverter can be programmed to inject and absorb the reactive power. Hence, both the overvoltage and undervoltage conditions can be regulated using the reactive power control ability. The dq components theory, which will be described in Section 2, can be used to perform the controlling mechanism efficiently .
Future work will focus on the coordination of active power curtailment and reactive power compensation control strategies for solar PV inverters in order to achieve effective voltage regulation while increasing the PV-hosting capacity.
Coordination of EESSs and active and reactive powers of PV inverters through a combination of localised and distributed control methods can minimise the active power curtailment and prevent the overvoltage while reducing the energy storage need .
Among the different voltage controls provided by solar PV inverters, active power curtailment [ 6, 7, 8, 9, 10] and reactive power management [ 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20] have been established as viable solutions for the overvoltage problems associated with extensive solar PV penetration in LV distribution networks.
Its primary role is involved with harnessing the maximum possible power from the PV farm, which is achieved using an MPPT algorithm. Besides power optimization, the inverter is also designed to execute power curtailment during instances of voltage sags.
The Volt-Var control of solar PV inverters outperforms the other control techniques by providing effective voltage regulation while requiring less reactive power compensation.
