In that case the inverter energizes a low voltage grid with rated AC voltage and rated frequency. Both the static and dynamic MPPT e
25、fficiency is considered. Based on the static MPPT efficiency and conversion efficiency the overall inverter efficiency is calculated.

The requirements are outlined in Clause A.1 4 MPPT and conversion efficiencies 4.1 General description Both the static as well as the dynamic MPPT efficiencies are determined from the sampled instantaneous values of voltage and current
42、at the input of the inverter. It indicates which amount of the theoretically usable PV generator power is actually used by the inverter. a) Static MPPT efficiency The static MPPT efficiency is determined by means of measurement as follows: ,1MPPTstat DC i DC iiMPP PVS MUI TPT= (4) where UDC,isampled
43、 value of the inverters input voltage; IDC,isampled value of the inverters input current; TM overall measuring period; T period between two subsequent sample values. The static MPPT efficiency describes the accuracy of an inverter to regulate on the maximum power point on a given static characterist
44、ic curve of a PV generator. NOTE UDC,iand IDC,imust be sampled at the same time. b) Dynamic MPPT efficiency Variations of the irradiation intensity and the resulting transition of the inverter to the new operation point are not considered with the static MPPT efficiency. For the evaluation of this t
45、ransient characteristic the dynamic MPPT efficiency is specified. The dynamic MPPT efficiency is defined as: ,1MPPTdyn DC i DC i iiMPP PVS j jjUI TPT= (5) The MPPT efficiency describes the accuracy of an inverter to set its operating conditions to match the maximum power point on the characteristic
46、curve of a PV generator. The MPPT efficiency is divided into the static and dynamic conditions. As with inverters with poor MPPT performance, the resulting DC input voltage is different from MPP voltage and conversion efficiency depends on DC input voltage, measurements of static MPPT efficiency and
