Abstract

The testing of a 500 kW photovoltaic array inverter using power hardware-in-the-loop simulation is described. A real-time simulator is used with a DC amplifier in order to emulate a photovoltaic (PV) array and an AC amplifier to emulate a power grid. The test setup is described in detail and a range of tests that were conducted on the inverter are summarized.
