Experimental Test of Grid Connected VSC to Improve the Power Quality in a Wave Power System

This paper provides an overview of electric power conversion system installed at the Lysekil research site, located at the west coast of Sweden. The electric power conversion system consists of rectifiers, rectifying the power from the wave energy converters, a DC-link and a grid-tied inverter. The paper focuses on the performance of the inverter and the filter and presents experimental results obtained during the grid integration.
