Abstract :
The paper introduces an advanced multilevel-based power converter structure for flexible power management of future electricity networks. The structure is then analysed so that appropriate control approaches are proposed in order to overcome technical challenges in power flow control. The validity of the study is finally verified by simulations. The results show that the proposed system control works satisfactorily and thus fulfills expected functionality for the system.
