doi:10.1109/TEC.2012.2197398engGarcía-Gracia, M.El Halabi, N.Ajami, H.Comech, M.P.Integrated control technique for compliance of solar photovoltaic installation grid codesART-2012-77926Energy policies along with technological advancements in power electronics have allowed a high penetration of photovoltaic installations. To normalize grid connections, in particular for solar photovoltaic (PV) installations, an arrangement of requirements have been set as a grid code to prove that this penetration can provide support and fully control during both steady-state and transient conditions of the grid. In this paper, a control system for a PV installation connected to the grid is developed to accomplish the requirements raised in the 2010 draft version of the Spanish grid code P.O. 12.2. Control loops for steady-state conditions as well as transient conditions (voltage dips, swells, and frequency control) have been implemented. Simulations have been performed using PSCAD/EMTDC™ program and supported by field tests of an existing PV installation in Spain using the voltage dip generator.2012http://zaguan.unizar.es/record/14890310.1109/TEC.2012.2197398http://zaguan.unizar.es/record/148903oai:zaguan.unizar.es:148903IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON ENERGY CONVERSION 27, 3 (2012), 792-798All rights reservedhttp://www.europeana.eu/rights/rr-f/info:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccess
