A: The core components include a DC-DC converter, maximum power point tracking (MPPT) controller, H-bridge inverter, and filtering circuits. These ensure efficient power conversion from solar panels to the grid.
A: MPPT algorithms dynamically adjust the input voltage to extract maximum power from solar panels under varying conditions. This optimization boosts energy harvest by up to 30% compared to traditional inverters.
A: Key challenges include synchronizing output with grid frequency/voltage, minimizing harmonic distortion, and implementing anti-islanding protection. Advanced control algorithms and GaN/SiC transistors help address these issues.
A: Galvanic isolation prevents DC current leakage and ensures user safety. High-frequency transformers or optocouplers are typically used to maintain separation between PV panels and AC grid circuits.
A: Major standards include IEC 62109 for safety, IEEE 1547 for grid interconnection, and UL 1741 for North American markets. Compliance ensures reliability, grid compatibility, and fire/electrical hazard prevention.
