A prototype current controlled power conditioning system has been developed and is being tested on a weak rural feeder line at Kalbarri, about 600 kilometers north-west of Perth in Western Australia. This system sources 20 kW of power from three photovoltaic arrays with a maximum power point tracking control. In addition, it provides voltage support for the grid at Kalbarri by varying its reactive power in response to the measured voltage at the point of connection. This paper describes the development and testing of the power conditioning system.
