Voltage Fluctuation Enhancement of Grid-Connected Power System Using PV and Battery-Based Dynamic Voltage Restorer

The Dynamic Voltage Restorer (DVR), which is connected in series between the power grid and the load, can rapidly compensate for voltage disturbances to maintain stable voltage at the load end. To enhance the energy supply capacity of the DVR and utilize its shared circuit topology with photovoltaic (PV) inverters—which enables the dual functions of voltage compensation and PV-storage power generation—this study integrates PV and energy storage as a coordinated energy unit into the DVR, forming a PV-storage-integrated DVR system. The core innovation of this system lies in extending the voltage disturbance detection capability of the DVR to include harmonics. By incorporating a Butterworth filtering module and voltage fluctuation tracking technology, high-precision disturbance identification is achieved, thereby supporting power balance control and functional coordination. Furthermore, a multi-mode-power coordinated regulation method is proposed, enabling dynamic switching between operating modes based on PV output. Simulation and experimental results demonstrate that the proposed system and strategy enable smooth mode transitions. This approach not only ensures reliable voltage compensation for sensitive loads but also enhances the grid-support capability of PV systems, offering an innovative technical solution for the integration of renewable energy and power quality management.

Abstract

The Dynamic Voltage Restorer (DVR), which is connected in series between the power grid and the load, can rapidly compensate for voltage disturbances to maintain stable voltage at the load end. To enhance the energy supply capacity of the DVR and utilize its shared circuit topology with photovoltaic (PV) inverters—which enables the dual functions of voltage compensation and PV-storage power generation—this study integrates PV and energy storage as a coordinated energy unit into the DVR, forming a PV-storage-integrated DVR system. The core innovation of this system lies in extending the voltage disturbance detection capability of the DVR to include harmonics. By incorporating a Butterworth filtering module and voltage fluctuation tracking technology, high-precision disturbance identification is achieved, thereby supporting power balance control and functional coordination. Furthermore, a multi-mode-power coordinated regulation method is proposed, enabling dynamic switching between operating modes based on PV output. Simulation and experimental results demonstrate that the proposed system and strategy enable smooth mode transitions. This approach not only ensures reliable voltage compensation for sensitive loads but also enhances the grid-support capability of PV systems, offering an innovative technical solution for the integration of renewable energy and power quality management.
