Abstract:

Since the conventional test method and test system for photovoltaic inverters cannot comprehensively evaluate the performance of inverters,a new engineering test system for the performance of photovoltaic inverters involved in power grid is proposed.By adding indicators such as site selection of power stations and access points and economic benefits,the applicability and performance evaluation capability of the method has been improved,making up the shortcomings of the original evaluation method which only assesses conventional test indicators such as power output characteristics,power quality,safety performance and system efficiency.The method not only meets the requirements of PV inverters'engineering application and test items of grid-connected standards for photovoltaic power stations,but also provides a comprehensive evaluation for the performance of a new type photovoltaic inverter involved in power grid.The onsite engineering test results of three types of silicon carbide(SiC) based PV inverters verifies the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed test system for the performance of the new photovoltaic inverter involved in power grid.

Key words: PV inverter, grid related operation performance, SiC power electronic device, onsite engineering test, carbon neutrality, coordination of generation-network-load
