Description:

This is a unique reference on the control of power inverters, (DC-AC conversion) providing an overview of conventional AC-DC-AC power conversion methodologies by an internationally recognised expert in the industry. The book provides highly accessible summary of the latest developments in power inverters, driven by the need to optimise grid integration of renewables. It also includes coverage of the author’s pioneering work on “synchroconverters”, which has gained EPRI and IET Highly Commended awards.The book consists of three parts:Part I (Power Quality Control), various control approaches to improve the power quality are covered. This includes the conventional PI control,…
