    Abstract: 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.

    Abstract: A power system is disclosed. Output terminals of a power supply or a DC-to-DC unit are cascaded to increase an output voltage, so as to reduce a current between the power supply or the DC-to-DC unit and the DC-to-AC unit, and resolve cost and loss problems of the cable from the power supply or the DC-to-DC unit to the DC-to-AC unit. In addition, according to the power system provided in the embodiments of this application, a quantity of cables from the power supply or the DC-to-DC unit to the DC-to-AC unit may be further reduced by cascading output terminals of the power supply or the DC-to-DC unit and cascading inputs of the DC-to-AC unit, thereby reducing system costs. In addition, in the power system provided in the embodiments of this application, cascaded input and isolated output of the DC-to-AC unit can reduce a specification of a power conversion device.

    Abstract: This application discloses a method for implementing a fast power response and a power plant. The method is applied to a power plant-end power control apparatus, and includes determining a whole-plant reactive power target value and/or a whole-plant active power target value of the power plant. The method also includes determining, based on the whole-plant reactive power target value and/or the whole-plant active power target value, a second power control instruction readable to each photovoltaic inverter or power conversion system in the power plant. The method further includes delivering, through a subarray controller or a subarray communication device over an Ethernet network and/or a field bus network, the second power control instruction to each photovoltaic inverter or power conversion system indicated by address identifier information carried in the second power control instruction, so that each photovoltaic inverter or power conversion system makes a fast power response based on the second power control instruction.

    Abstract: Embodiments of this application provide an inverter apparatus and an inverter system. In the inverter apparatus, a direct current output end of an alternating and direct current distribution cabinet is connected to a first direct current input end of an inverter. A first alternating current output end of the inverter is connected to an alternating current input end of the alternating and direct current distribution cabinet, and the alternating and direct current distribution cabinet outputs a converged alternating current. In this way, on-site wiring is simplified, and on-site maintenance is reduced to some extent.

    Abstract: A power converter box and at least one junction box are integrated on a backplane of the photovoltaic module as a whole, and there is a cable for connecting the power converter and the junction box. In this case, relative to the conventional technology in which a junction box is independent of a power converter, a length of a cable used when the junction box and the power converter box are taken as a whole is shorter than a length of a cable used in the conventional technology. In this case, compared with the conventional technology in which a cable is connected to an independently placed power converter, the power converter only needs to establish a connection relationship by using a solder ribbon, a circuit board cable, and the like with low costs, so that production costs are low.

    Abstract: Embodiments of this application disclose an inverter apparatus and an inverter apparatus control method. The inverter apparatus includes an inverter circuit and a control unit, and the control unit detects a driving mode of the inverter circuit based on a running state of the inverter circuit. When the inverter circuit outputs reactive power and an output current amplitude is greater than a current threshold, the control unit controls the inverter circuit in a full-bridge two-level bipolar control mode; and in other cases, the control unit controls the inverter circuit in a three-level control mode. This reduces a risk of breaking down horizontal bridge semiconductor switching devices by a voltage spike in an active turn-off process.
