    摘要: This application relates to a converter in a photovoltaic power generation system and a parametric curve scanning method for a photovoltaic string. A parametric curve includes a current-voltage curve or a power-voltage curve. The scanning method includes: controlling an output voltage of the photovoltaic string to change from a first endpoint voltage of a first voltage range to a second endpoint voltage of the first voltage range according to a first preset rule, to scan a first parametric curve; controlling the output voltage of the photovoltaic string to change from a third endpoint voltage of a second voltage range to a fourth endpoint voltage of the second voltage range according to a second preset rule, to scan a second parametric curve. There is an intersection set between the first voltage range and the second voltage range. In this application, whether a scanned curve is affected by a light change may be determined based on the first parametric curve and the second parametric curve. This is convenient and fast, and no additional hardware test device is required.

    摘要: A photovoltaic power generation system includes a single-stage inverter, an anti-backflow circuit, a photovoltaic string, and a coupling capacitor. The anti-backflow circuit is connected to one input end of the single-stage inverter, one output end of the photovoltaic string is connected to the other input end of the single-stage inverter, and the other output end of the photovoltaic string is connected to the anti-backflow circuit. The photovoltaic string includes a buck optimizer and a photovoltaic panel. The anti-backflow circuit is configured to prevent a backflow current from flowing back to the photovoltaic string. The coupling capacitor is connected in parallel to two ends of the anti-backflow circuit and is configured to transmit a signal between each buck optimizer in the photovoltaic string and the single-stage inverter, to control backflow of the backflow current when the anti-backflow circuit fails.

    摘要: A photovoltaic system includes a controller and plurality of photovoltaic strings that are independently controlled. The controller enables some photovoltaic strings to be in a maximum power point tracking state, and the remaining photovoltaic strings to be in a power output limited state. The system implements maximum power point tracking detection so that the maximum power point power and the maximum power point voltage are updated in real time. Further, the working status of the power supply system can be fed back in real time, so that the photovoltaic system can predict the capacity of an energy storage apparatus or regulate charging and discharging of the energy storage apparatus. After a curtailment state ends, the photovoltaic system is relatively quickly restored to the normal working state, so that a loss of generated power is reduced.

The controller adjusts the output current of the first converter to a second current value based on output power of the first converter and a power threshold, where a difference between adjusted output power of the first converter and the power threshold is less than a difference between the unadjusted output power of the first converter and the power threshold. The controller adjusts the output current of the first converter based on the first current value and the second current value.
