Various commercial solutions for grid-connected PV systems are available at any power level, ranging from multi-megawatt utility-scale solar farms to sub-kilowatt residential PV installations. Compared to utility-scale systems, the feasibility of small-scale residential PV installations is still limited by existing technologies that have not yet properly address issues like operation in weak grids, opaque and partial shading, etc. New market drivers such as warranty improvement to match the PV module lifespan, operation voltage range extension for application flexibility, and embedded energy storage for load shifting have again put small-scale PV systems in the spotlight. This Special Issue collects the latest developments in the field of power electronic converter topologies, control, design, and optimization for better energy yield, power conversion efficiency, reliability, and longer lifetime of the small-scale PV systems. This Special Issue will serve as a reference and update for academics, researchers, and practicing engineers to inspire new research and developments that pave the way for next-generation PV systems for residential and small commercial applications.History of engineering and technologybicssc1500 V photovoltaic (PV)active poweractive power up-regulationadaptive droop controlbidirectional switchbridge-linked (BL)buck-boostburst controlcapability curvescascade multilevel converterscascaded H-bridgecenter-cross-tied (CCT)consensus algorithmcontrol systemconversion efficiencyconverter topologiescoordinated controlcost-oriented designDC electric springDC microgridDC-AC convertersDC-DC converterdifferential power processing (DPP)distributed cooperative controldistributed renewable energy sourcedouble-frequency rippledroop controldual inverterefficiencyElectric springenergy storageenergy yieldESS sizingfilterfrequency response (FR)full bridge inverterfull-bridge invertergrid codesgrid integrationgrid-connected photovoltaic systemsgrid-tied PV planthierarchical controlleakage currentmaximum power-point trackingmicrogridmicroinvertermismatchmodular multilevel convertermodulationmodule levelmultiple maximasmultistring convertersneutral-point-clamped inverterNPC topologyopen-end winding transformerpartial shadingPFCphotovoltaicphotovoltaic (PV)photovoltaic (PV) arraysphotovoltaic applicationphotovoltaic inverterphotovoltaic power systempower clippingpower decoupling controlpower reserve control (PRC)PV applicationsPV generatorsPV invertersPV microinvertersPV systemsquasi-z-sourcequasi-Z-source inverterreactive powerreliabilityrenewable energyRenewable energyresidential systemsripple vector cancellationseries resonance converterseries-parallel (SP)shoot-through duty cyclesingle stage micro-invertersingle-stagesolar energyswitch-mode rectifierswitching modulation strategyT-type converterstapped inductorthree-level inverterthree-phase rectifiertotal-cross-tied (TCT)transformerless invertertwo-level invertervariable dc-link voltagevariable frequency controlvirtual synchronous generator (VSG)wide range converterZCSZVSHistory of engineering and technologyVinnikov Dmitriedt1310427Kouro SamiredtYang YonghengedtVinnikov DmitriothKouro SamirothYang YonghengothBOOK9910557117603321Emerging Converter Topologies and Control for Grid Connected Photovoltaic Systems3029800UNINA
