Abstract

Microgrid power system is becoming popular for utilizing renewable energy. This energy should invert to supply AC for microgrid, but inversion of the renewable energy has suffered some issues; inferior quality of waveform, large phase difference, high switching loss and poor power quality. A new scheme of phase synchronous inverter (PSI) has outline in the microgrid system which improve the quality of the power supply. A pulse width modulation (PWM) signal is generated for PSI to precisely synchronize with the grid line frequency. A lowpass LC filter is utilized to reduce the higher harmonics frequency in the inverter. In this research a resistive load of 40 Ω and input DC voltage ± 35 V has been considered. A PWM of 1600 Hz carrier frequency and 95% modulation index with 50 Hz fundamental frequency has been examined in this project. The simulated results show that the proposed PSI overall efficiency is 96%, total harmonic distortion (THD) is 3.9% and phase distortion is about 4 degrees. Therefore, it is highly appreciated that proposed design will improve the microgrid power supply system.
