“…The number of states is on the order of thousands to tens of thousands. These states include the arm currents, normal SM capacitor voltages, PV SM capacitor voltages, PV SM inductor currents, ESS-SM capacitor voltages, ESS-SM inductor currents, and semiconductor switching states [48]. The equations representing the corresponding dynamics are shown in the Appendix A.2.1; the isolated module dynamics are shown here as an example.…”

“…Solar power generation systems can be categorized as standalone, grid-connected, and hybrid types. The grid-connected and hybrid systems can be interconnected with the grid, battery banks, diesel generators, and other renewable energy devices [3][4][5] which allow them to support each other and enhance grid stability. However, their installation costs are relatively high.…”

This study presents a standalone solar power system that incorporates a photovoltaic (PV) module, a boost converter, an H-bridge inverter, a low-pass filter (LPF), and a microcontroller unit (MCU). A novel cake sweetness maximum power point tracking (CS MPPT) algorithm and adjustable frequency and duty cycle (AFDC) control strategy has been proposed and efficiently applied to the solar power system for optimizing the system efficiency and output power quality. The experimental results show that the proposed CS MPPT algorithm achieves an efficiency of 99% under both the uniform irradiance conditions (UIC) and partial shading conditions (PSC). Subsequently, the AFDC control strategy is applied to the H-bridge inverter which improves the output AC voltage and AC current and thereby improving the power quality. The system ensures a stable 110 Vrms/60 Hz AC output voltage with only 2% total voltage harmonic distortion of voltage (THDv), and produces a high-quality output voltage with reduced LPF volume and better economic benefits. The comparative analysis demonstrates that the characteristics and the performances of the CS MPPT algorithm in combination with the AFDC control strategy is better than the existing several maximum power point tracking (MPPT) techniques and inverter control strategies. The research output affirms the potential of the proposed solar power system to fulfill the actual daily needs of electricity by harnessing the maximum power from PV modules.

“…The first publications about modular structures with ESS focus on Cascaded H-Bridge Converter (CHB) and Modular Multilevel Converter (MMC) topologies but solely for the purpose of connecting an ESS to the grid at medium voltage level [10]- [14]. Recent works are dedicated to the combination of ESS and MMC for the enhancement of HVDC converter stations, used in point-to-point links, with an energy storage function [15]- [21].…”
