Resumen: The power ripple in the DC-link of photovoltaic and energy storage systems interconnected to the AC mains can drastically impact the lifespan of the photovoltaic panel and the system in general. This problem can be easily solved by using DC-link electrolytic capacitors as a passive decoupling method; however, this implies significant drawbacks such as increased volume and cost of the capacitor and a significant reduction in efficiency and reliability. This can be compensated by replacing electrolytic capacitors with active power decoupling methods based on power electronic converters. Thus, a Bidirectional Buck-Boost converter as an active power decoupling scheme is proposed. First, a power decoupling overview is addressed. Afterward, the operation of the Buck-Boost converter is detailed. Therefore, the control strategy is also explained. Finally, some simulations and preliminary experimental results to verify the integrated operation of the power converter are given.
