MPPT-Based Grid-Connected Power Quality Tracking and Control System for Photovoltaic Power Stations

To address the challenges of power fluctuations, voltage instability, and current deviations during photovoltaic (PV) grid integration, this paper proposes a novel tracking and control system based on Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT). The system integrates advanced hardware architecture with intelligent algorithms to achieve precise energy quality management under dynamic operating conditions.

1. System Architecture and Hardware Implementation

The core hardware configuration consists of three critical components:

Component Function Key Specifications
SN74ALS1245N Chip Signal conversion and circuit stabilization ±15V operating range, 100MHz frequency
MPU-6050 Load Processor Power signal buffering 16-bit ADC resolution, I²C interface
W77E58 Oscillator System clock management 40MHz frequency, 3.3V operation

The grid-connected control circuit implements MPPT through:

$$ P_{\text{max}} = V_{\text{mp}} \times I_{\text{mp}} $$

where \( V_{\text{mp}} \) and \( I_{\text{mp}} \) represent the voltage and current at maximum power point, respectively.

2. MPPT Algorithm and Power Stability Analysis

The proposed MPPT algorithm evaluates power oscillation characteristics using:

$$ \beta = \frac{j_0 + g}{f\bar{S}} $$

where:

  • \( j_0 \): Initial grid-connected power output
  • \( g \): Oscillation intensity factor
  • \( f \): MPPT power coefficient
  • \( \bar{S} \): Average PV output power

The power tracking accuracy is enhanced through:

$$ A = d \cdot \left|1 + \frac{h}{l^{p’}}\right|_{\phi O} $$

where \( \phi \) represents real-time control vectors for grid-connected power signals.

3. Experimental Validation

Comparative testing under 390V/40A standard conditions revealed:

System Type Voltage Deviation (V) Current STD (A) MPPT Efficiency (%)
Proposed System ≤60 ≤5 98.7
Spherical Coil System 220 18 82.4
CAN Bus System 185 15 85.9

The MPPT-based system demonstrates superior performance in power oscillation suppression:

$$ \Delta V = \sqrt{\frac{1}{N}\sum_{i=1}^{N}(V_i – V_{\text{std}})^2} $$
$$ \Delta I = \sqrt{\frac{1}{N}\sum_{i=1}^{N}(I_i – I_{\text{std}})^2} $$

where \( V_{\text{std}} \) and \( I_{\text{std}} \) denote standard voltage and current values.

4. Advanced MPPT Parameter Optimization

The system implements adaptive MPPT tuning through:

$$ \alpha_{\text{opt}} = \arg\min_{\alpha} \left( \frac{\partial P}{\partial V} \cdot \frac{\partial^2 P}{\partial V^2} \right) $$

This optimization ensures rapid convergence to maximum power points under varying irradiation conditions.

5. Conclusion

The developed MPPT-based control system achieves:

  • 60V maximum voltage deviation (84% improvement)
  • 5A current standard deviation (67% reduction)
  • 98.7% average MPPT efficiency

This architecture provides an effective solution for maintaining power quality in modern PV grid integration systems, particularly under challenging power oscillation conditions. Future work will focus on multi-objective MPPT optimization for hybrid renewable energy systems.
