Abstract

In this paper voltage source converter is interfaced with renewable energy sources such as solar and wind for power quality improvement. The output of a wind energy conversion system is given as one input to the voltage source converter. Perturb and observation based solar panel is projected for changing irradiance to utilize the maximum obtainable power from the solar panel. The output of wind energy conversion system along with output of solar panel is given to voltage source converter wherein the DC is converted to AC with improvement of power quality. A DC link bus connects both the converters of voltage source converters and AC output of converter is given to non-linear load through a grid connected system. Different digital simulation results are acquired to validate features of voltage source converter for multi input renewable energy sources.

Keywords
