A novel fault ride-through technique for grid-connected Photo Voltaic energy systems

In this article, a novel fault ride-through technique has been implanted with a double control loop method. This method is implemented with voltage-source converters, where the active and reactive power could be easily done with the voltage control loop and inherent current control loop. The proposed system has been implemented to grid-connected photovoltaic systems, and the results have been explored and compared with the existing techniques. An additional control strategy is implemented successfully for satisfactory performance of the system during low irradiance periods, and the system is made capable to provide Q-support to the grid according to the system operators request with the help of Q-set point.
