Popis: This paper proposes a multi-objective control strategy using adaptive fuzzy PI (AFPI) controller for grid-interactive converter (GIC). The proposed controller utilizes the robust and adaptive nature of fuzzy logic control (FLC) and simple structure of PI controller to effectively improve the dynamic performance of the GIC during uncertainties. In the proposed method, the gains of the PI controller are dynamically adjusted by the fuzzy logic based supervisory control system according to the system operating conditions. Hence, it provides fast dynamic response with reduced overshoot and settling time during disturbances. In addition, the proposed Takagi–Sugeno (TS) fuzzy model is computationally more effective when compared to mamdani type fuzzy models. In the proposed multi-objective control scheme, the GIC is utilized to provide various ancillary services in addition to its primary function of injecting active power to the grid. Computer simulation shows that the dynamic performance of the proposed controller is robust than the conventional PI controller during disturbances. Additionally, the results are compared with the existing literature to validate the performance of the proposed controller.
