Description
Los inversores son los principales actuadores en el control de microrredes en AC, pues ellos gestionan los flujos de potencia de los generadores y los dispositivos de almacenamiento de energía. En general, existen tres tipos de inversores dependiendo de la estrategia de control: inversores alimentadores de red, inversores formadores de red e inversores soporte de red. Dichos inversores pueden ser implementados con diferentes topologías hardware, cada una de ellas con ventajas y desventajas. Este artículo presenta una síntesis de las topologías de inversores ampliamente usadas en microrredes de AC. Además, el artículo también describe la arquitectura y las principales estratégicas de control de los inversores.
Inverters are the key actuator in the control of AC microgrids, since they manage the power flows of both the generators and energy storage devices. In general, there are three types of inverters depending on the control strategy: grid feeding inverters, grid forming inverters and grid supporting inverters. Those inverters can be implemented with different hardware topologies, each one of them with advantages and disadvantages. This paper presents a sinthesis of the widely used inverter topologies used in AC microgrids. Moreover, this paper also describes the inverters control architectures and the main strategies
