Abstract
The current inverter control strategies have limitations in suppressing grid resonance, especially in complex grid environments with high penetration of renewable energy sources. These strate-gies often focus on suppressing resonance at a single frequency point, but their effectiveness is constrained when dealing with multi-band resonance or dynamically changing grid conditions. The study investigates the application of parallel-operated inverters in the grid, particularly their impact on grid stability. A novel active damping strategy is developed to enhance the grid’s dynamic response and suppress grid resonance. The effectiveness of the control strategy is verified through simulation by establishing Norton equivalent circuit models for multiple in-verters. Fast Through simulation, this study comprehensively evaluates the performance and adaptability of the strategy under various conditions. Results demonstrate that implementing the active damping strategy increases the inverter output power from 9.5 kW to 10 kW, an im-provement of 5.26%. System response time is reduced from 50 ms to 30 ms, and post-stabilization fluctuations decrease to 1.5%. These data conclusively prove the effectiveness of the control strategy in enhancing grid stability and reducing resonance effects. The findings underscore the potential of active damping strategies in improving grid performance and in-verter efficiency. However, further research and optimization are necessary to assess the adapt-ability of these strategies under different grid conditions.
