Abstract

There is increasing penetration of photovoltaic (PV) systems into modern power grids; however, existing centralized communication architectures for PV stations often suffer from high latency and poor scalability, and the synchronization and coordinated control of multi-inverter clusters at millisecond timescales remain unresolved challenges. Hence, this paper proposes a distributed communication-based framework integrating multi-inverter synchronization and dynamic power allocation for rapid power regulation in PV stations. The architecture employs decentralized control logic to achieve the real-time synchronization of inverter clusters, eliminating reliance on centralized controllers. A dynamic power allocation algorithm, embedded with adaptive droop characteristics, optimizes active power distribution across inverters while minimizing transient overshoot. Experimental validation confirms the efficacy and operational advantages of the proposed communication architecture and power allocation strategy.
