Abstract: A three-level converter includes a high-voltage side unit, a low-voltage side unit, a flying capacitor, a first switch to a fourth switch, and a control unit. When a voltage of the flying capacitor falls outside a safe target voltage range, the control unit may control the third switch and the fourth switch to be normally open, and control, based on the voltage of the flying capacitor and a voltage of the low-voltage side unit, each of the first switch and the second switch to be turned on or off, so that the voltage of the flying capacitor falls within the target voltage range. Alternatively, the control unit may control the first switch and the second switch to be normally open, and control, based on the voltage of the flying capacitor and a voltage of the low-voltage side unit.

Abstract: An insulation impedance detection method includes: An inverter injects a first common-mode voltage into an alternating current side, where the first common-mode voltage is divided by an alternating current grounding insulation impedance of an alternating current cable and a direct current grounding insulation impedance of a photovoltaic unit. The inverter can obtain an impedance value of the alternating current grounding insulation impedance based on the first common-mode voltage, a voltage divided by the alternating current grounding insulation impedance for the first common-mode voltage (a second common-mode voltage on the alternating current grounding insulation impedance), and an impedance value of the direct current grounding insulation impedance. The alternating current grounding insulation impedance is detected by using a necessary device, namely, the inverter in a photovoltaic power generation system.

Abstract: A power system includes a controller, configured to adjust an output current of a first converter to a first current value based on a voltage of a direct current bus and a voltage threshold, where a difference between an adjusted voltage of the direct current bus and the voltage threshold is less than a difference between the unadjusted voltage of the direct current bus and the voltage threshold. The controller adjusts the output current of the first converter to a second current value based on output power of the first converter and a power threshold, where a difference between adjusted output power of the first converter and the power threshold is less than a difference between the unadjusted output power of the first converter and the power threshold. The controller adjusts the output current of the first converter based on the first current value and the second current value.

Abstract: This application relates to a converter in a photovoltaic power generation system and a parametric curve scanning method for a photovoltaic string. A parametric curve includes a current-voltage curve or a power-voltage curve. The scanning method includes: controlling an output voltage of the photovoltaic string to change from a first endpoint voltage of a first voltage range to a second endpoint voltage of the first voltage range according to a first preset rule, to scan a first parametric curve; controlling the output voltage of the photovoltaic string to change from a third endpoint voltage of a second voltage range to a fourth endpoint voltage of the second voltage range according to a second preset rule, to scan a second parametric curve. There is an intersection set between the first voltage range and the second voltage range. In this application, whether a scanned curve is affected by a light change may be determined based on the first parametric curve and the second parametric curve.

Abstract: An energy storage system includes a battery cluster, a battery control system, at least two first power conversion modules, a bus, and a second power conversion module. A plurality of battery packs in the battery cluster are connected in parallel to the bus through the at least two first power conversion modules, one end of the second power conversion module is connected in parallel to the battery cluster, and the other end of the second power conversion module is connected to a load or a power grid. The battery control system obtains a target current value that needs to be provided by the second power conversion module to the load or the power grid. In this application, the battery parameters of the battery packs can be equalized, or the battery cluster is enabled to output the target power, so that system stability is improved.
