PSO-PR Power flow Control of a Single-Stage Grid-Connected PV Inverter

In this article, a current control algorithm is conceived for converting solar dc power into ac power of high-quality. This conversion is based only on a dc-ac converter, avoiding the use of two stage converter. The proposed algorithm is founded on tracking the maximum power point which ensures controlling the electrical power exchanged with the grid. To assure a good dynamics and reduce the control errors, a proportional resonant controllers are utilized and a self-tuning founded on particle swarm optimization is utilized. The proposal strategy goodness is verified by means of numerical simulations.
