Description - Grid Converters for Photovoltaic and Wind Power Sy stems, Second Edition by R Teodorescu

This book provides updated, detailed coverage of power converters for renewable energy systems. It starts with an overview of the electrical characteristics of renewable energy sources, explaining why it is necessary to interface such sources to the grid through power converters. The authors also cover some general concepts in control theory, explaining different types of controller. Following this, the text goes on to analyse firstly the control of grid converters for photovoltaic, and then wind power systems, looking at system fundamentals, and more specific system control such as maximum point power tracking (MPPT), grid synchronization and monitoring methods, and grid requirement issues. Next, is a more general discussion of grid filters required by grid-connected distributed power generation systems (DPGS), and the interaction between grid converters and the grid. The final chapter examines some new auxiliary functions that may be implemented in DPGS in the future, to ensure stability as more power generated by these systems is integrated.
