    Control Strategy Evaluation for Reactive Power Management in Grid-Connected Photovoltaic Systems Under Varying Solar Conditions
    (Nature Portfolio, 2025) Adak, Suleyman
    Solar energy is environmentally friendly and one of the most significant renewable energy sources. This energy is a leading renewable energy source, contributing significantly to sustainable development goals. In grid-connected photovoltaic (PV) systems, reactive power management is essential for maintaining voltage stability and ensuring reliable operation. However, the influence of fluctuating solar irradiation (G) on reactive power (Q) behavior is often underrepresented in conventional inverter control strategies. This research addresses this gap by modeling the dependence of reactive power on solar irradiance using a data-driven curve-fitting approach. The methodology involves the acquisition of real-world operational data, preprocessing, selection of an appropriate analytical model, and validation of its performance. The findings indicate that reactive power increases under low irradiance conditions, primarily due to inverter behavior and grid voltage support requirements. The resulting analytical expression offers a practical framework for integrating irradiance-dependent reactive power control into inverter firmware or grid management software. The model performed with high accuracy with an R2 of 0.9955. This contribution enhances the ability of PV systems to respond dynamically to environmental changes, improving grid compatibility, operational efficiency, and voltage regulation in modern distributed energy networks.

    Power Factor Analysis of Grid-Connected Solar Inverter Under Different Irradiance Levels Throughout the Day
    (MDPI, 2024) Adak, Suleyman
    The power factor (PF) plays a crucial role in determining the quality of energy produced by grid-connected photovoltaic (PV) systems. When irradiation levels are high, typically during peak sunlight hours, the PV panels generate more electricity. In this scenario, the PF tends to be higher because the real power output closely matches the apparent power drawn from the grid. Whereas, when irradiation levels are low, such as during cloudy weather or nighttime, the PV panels produce less electricity. In these conditions, the power factor may decrease because the real power output diminishes compared to the apparent power drawn from the grid. This could be due to reduced efficiency or increased reactive power flow. PF decreases linearly at solar irradiance values lower than 220 (W/m2). At the same time, it approaches unity at higher solar irradiance values than 220 (W/m2). In this study, the variation of the power coefficient of the grid-connected PV solar system depending on solar irradiation was modeled and analyzed using MATLAB/Simulink 41016490. The analytical expression of the power factor depending on the change in solar irradiation was found using the curve fitting method.
