“…The operation of power electronics converters for the grid connection of PV stations is correlated also with the generation of current harmonics [19,20]. The injection of these harmonics to the distribution grid may have impacts to the voltage quality and also initiate resonance phenomena in correlation to power factor correction capacitors.…”

“…Though the output of a PV panel depends on the solar intensity and cloud cover, the PQ problems not only depend on irradiation but also are based on the overall performance of solar photovoltaic system including PV modules, inverter, filters controlling mechanism etc. Studies presented in [7], show that the short fluctuation of irradiance and cloud cover play an important role for low-voltage distribution grids with high penetration of PV. Therefore, special attention should be paid to the voltage profile and the power flow on the line.…”

Abstract. This paper presents a technical review of power quality problems associated with the renewable based distributed generation systems and how custom power devices (CPD) such as STATCOM, DVR and UPQC play an important role in power quality improvement. IEEE and IEC standards for grid connected renewable energy systems are one of the critical points of interest for the selection of custom power devices. PV and wind energy systems integration issues and associated PQ problems are discussed. The role of CPDs in enhancing the integration of renewables and providing quality power through custom power park are described.

“…Chicco et al [11] provided a multi-faceted view on the characterisation of the waveform distortion in grid-connected photovoltaic (PV) plants from experimental results. The focus was set on the characterisation of the waveform distortion occurring under different operating conditions in field measurements and laboratory test.…”

ABSTRACT:The main scope of this paper is to investigate the power quality characteristics of various modern PV inverters installed on small sized rooftop PV stations. For this purpose, seven 3-phase, transformer-less PV inverters with similar electrical characteristics are chosen. Analytical field measurements of 10kWp PV systems, located in different regions of Greece, were performed by means of a Class A Power Analyzer. The data gathered were further analysed in detail and compared in order to identify the main factors affecting important power quality characteristics, including harmonic distortion, voltage fluctuations, as well as power factor and reactive power. The measurements validated some of the inverters' power quality supply characteristics as stated in the datasheets and according to the regulations.
