6 FAQs about [Photovoltaic inverter reactive power regulation capability]

Can PV inverters provide reactive power?

With the increased use of PV inverters on the transmission network, the industry is moving towards the ability to provide reactive power capability. Some PV inverters have the capability to absorb or inject reactive power, if needed, provided that current and terminal voltage ratings are not exceeded.

Do solar PV inverters need Dynamic Reactive support?

Sometimes, external dynamic reactive support is required to assist with voltage ride-through compliance. During periods of low wind or solar resource, some generators in the plant may be disconnected from the grid. The DC voltage for solar PV inverters may limit the reactive power capability of the inverters.

How do PV inverters control voltage levels?

The control of voltage levels is accomplished by managing the generation or consumption of reac- tive power in the electric system. Since PV inverters have reactive power capability, they can provide immediate reactive power support to the grid for voltage regulation.

Does a PV plant need a reactive power range?

In the case of PV, a requirement to maintain reactive power range at full output represents a change with respect to historical industry practice. This cost impact could be substantial if the PV plant relies on the PV inverters to provide a portion or all of the required plant-level reactive power capability.

How are reactive capabilities of PV inverters measured?

The reactive capabilities of PV invert- ers are measured at the inverter terminals. Interconnection reactive requirements are specified at the POI. Between the POI and the inverter terminals are a network of conductors that deliver the real power from each inverter to the POI.

Can a solar PV inverter be disconnected from the grid?

During periods of low wind or solar resource, some generators in the plant may be disconnected from the grid. The DC voltage for solar PV inverters may limit the reactive power capability of the inverters. This should be taken into consideration when specifying reactive power capability for variable generation plants.
