In addition, the output current of PV inverters involving PR controller is prone to the unwanted harmonics introduced by non-linear loads. This problem can be solved by integrating harmonic compensators (HCs), which are adjusted to the harmonics to be filtered out. Such controllers are realized using a two-phase stationary reference α-β frame.
This can be done by modifying the PV inverter control loops, in order to incorporate the grid''s current unbalance compensation feature. It would result in the injection of partially unbalanced three-phase currents by the inverter, to mitigate the preexisting unbalances of the currents in the three-phase grid, and consequently, divert the
