Abstract
Multi-parallel grid-connected voltage source inverters (VSIs) are widely applied in the fields of renewable energy, energy storage, harmonic suppression, etc. However, these inverters may cause harmonic stability problems due to the interactions among the grid-connected inverters through the grid impedance, which can seriously threaten system stability. The impedance-based stability criterion provides an effective tool for analyzing harmonic instability issues and can be divided into two types, namely, a ratio type and a sum type. Based on the existing studies of the sum-type criterion, this paper further proposes a new sum-type form based on the global admittance from the PCC to assess system stability through frequency-domain analysis. This global admittance-based stability criterion can be used not only to analyze system stability, but also to reveal the influence of each VSI unit on system stability with a lower computational burden and provide guidance for resonance suppression, especially in the case of a large number of grid-connected inverters and asymmetric inverter parameters. Finally, a MATLAB/Simulink model and 400 kVA/400 V experimental platform consisting of six grid-connected VSIs were established, and the corresponding results are presented to verify the effectiveness of the proposed method.
