A Novel Power Conditioner System for Isolated DC Microgrid System

摘要

This paper proposes a power conditioner system (PCS), a basic building block for isolated microgrid system based on photovoltaic (PV) as the main power source. The power conditioner system consists of a PV chopper, battery chopper, inverter, and DC grid chopper in a single unit. The proposed system is designed for ease of installation and modularity that are important in remote areas. This paper shows measurement results under several conditions. The evaluation shows promising results and a solid basis for electrification in remote areas based on PV.
