Abstract
This article concerns the applicability of the 13-09 law on renewable energy in Morocco for free production of electric power from photovoltaic stands. The maximum power permitted is 20 kW. First, we present the structure of the PV platform allowing this production with the highest voltage possible. Afterward, we consider the inverter for transforming the DC to the AC voltage. We have adopted a three-phase topology. Indeed, article 5 of the act states that the connection of the renewable power sources to the public grid can be only on the medium, high or extra high voltage. For reducing the harmonics effect, we have chosen a multilevel inverter. As the authorized power is low, the transformer characteristics are not standardized, which leads to additional costs.
