For optimal power extraction from WEGS as well as the solar PV array, perturb and observe algorithm is used. The prototype developed in the laboratory is tested under different operating conditions such as variable wind speed, grid voltage sag/swell, variable solar insolation, and varying load conditions.
Generally, for interfacing a low voltage renewable energy source, like solar photovoltaic (PV) and small wind turbines, to an ac load or the utility grid, a line frequency transformer is used with a conventional voltage source inverter (VSI).
The use of a high-frequency transformer mitigates the problem of reduced power density due to the decrease in the size of the magnetic core. However, the increase in the number of stages increases the losses and complexity of the inverter.
