Abstract

As the major worldwide infrastructure distribution systems are in AC, the chapter intends to review the main power converter types for Energy Sources integration. The requirements imposed by the existing standards are envisaged. An effective solution for injection of electrical power from Renewable Energy Sources (DC and AC power sources) into the grid is presented. Additionally, the efficiency improvement by means of the modulation techniques is implemented and shown in this chapter. Due to the higher power energy in three-phase power systems (PSs), despite of the AC single-phase PSs, the large energy storage systems are not necessary.
