METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR CONTROLLING ALTERNATING CURRENT CASCADE PHOTOVOLTAIC POWER GENERATION SYSTEM

A method for controlling an alternating current cascade photovoltaic power generation system is provided, which includes: acquiring, by a master controller, a current total output power of the system; determining, by the master controller, whether the total power value is greater than a preset power value; generating, by the master controller, a first control signal if the total power value is greater than the preset power value; generating, by the master controller, a second control signal if the total power value is smaller than or equal to the preset power value; receiving, by the slave controller, the first or second control signal generated by the master controller; and controlling, by the slave controller based on the first control signal, a cascade unit to independently perform an MPPT operation, or controlling, by the slave controller based on the second control signal, the cascade unit to output power.
