    Harmonic Elimination in Photovoltaic (PV) Systems Using Various Multilevel Inverter Topologies

    By Roches Ranjan Pradhan, Khageswar Mantry, Satyajit Pradhan, Sourabha Parida, Bibhu Prasad Ganthia

    Abstract: The increasing penetration of photovoltaic (PV) systems into modern power grids necessitates advanced power electronic interfaces capable of delivering high-quality electrical power with minimal harmonic distortion. Multilevel inverters (MLIs) have emerged as an effective solution due to their ability to synthesize near-sinusoidal output voltages with reduced switching losses and electromagnetic interference. This study presents a comprehensive investigation of harmonic elimination in grid-connected PV systems using 5-level, 7-level, and 11-level multilevel …

    Power Quality Improvement in Grid-Connected PV Systems using TCSC

    By Bibhu Prasad Ganthia

    Abstract: Power quality issues such as voltage sags, swells, and harmonic distortions pose significant challenges to the stability and efficiency of grid-connected systems. This study presents a simulation and analysis of a Thyristor-Controlled Series Capacitor (TCSC) for mitigating voltage sags and swells, thereby enhancing overall power quality. A grid-connected photovoltaic (PV) system integrated with a TCSC is modelled and simulated using MATLAB/Simulink to evaluate its performance under diverse operating conditions. The …

    Strengthening Low Voltage Ride-Through in Wind Energy Systems: A Comparative Study of DVR and STATCOM

    By Bibhu Prasad Ganthia, Praveen B. M

    Abstract: This study looks at the various methods used to improve the low-voltage ride-through (LVRT) capabilities of wind turbine systems (WT) that are based on double-fed induction generators (DFIG). The Type-III WT machine, which is mostly based on DFIG, is instantly connected to the grid without the digital power interface, making the terminal voltage or reactive electricity output unmanageable. This is because the world utilizes between 20% and 25% of renewable …
