Design the Tuned Filter using Solar PV Connected with Grid System for Harmonics Elimination

Abstract

According to the future emphasis on the smart grid, renewable energy is vital to the revolution in power generation. A microgrid will be able to maintain itself in the next years without substantially relying on fossil fuel sources thanks to the noticeable increase in the penetration of renewable energy sources, notably solar energy. If not effectively controlled, power quality issues resulting from these interconnections might seriously impair the grid and distribution assets. The distribution system’s harmonics are removed from it by the HAPF management, which is caused by nonlinear loads and micro inverters. The longest daylight hours are when the PV-powered HAPF system performs at its best. To examine the harmonic distortion on the output waveforms, simulation and experiment data are combined.
