Technical FAQs 4

Why do inverters have a high impedance?

Owing to the distributed nature of renewable energy generation, extended transmission lines, the leakage inductance of distribution transformers, and the escalating influx of new energy sources, the grid connection point for inverters presents a notably high equivalent impedance [ 2 ].

What is the equivalence of a two-port impedance inverter?

Figure 2 8 1: Inverter equivalence: (a) two-port impedance inverter (of impedance K): (b) a quarter-wave transmission line of characteristic impedance Z 0 = K; and (c) a terminated one-quarter wavelength long line. called the impedance of the inverter.

Does operating mode affect inverter impedance?

For GFM control, the operating mode shows negligible effect on the inverter impedance. Operating point plays a crucial role in the passivity and stability risk of GFL IBR, as documented in recent literatures [1, 33, 34, 40].

Does reshaping the output impedance of an inverter improve its adaptability?

The aim is to tackle the issue of amplified grid impedance, typically resulting in resonance within the grid-connected current of the inverter in weak grid scenarios. The method reshapes the output impedance of the inverter, enhancing its adaptability in weak grid scenarios. The following conclusions are derived: 1.
