Abstract
This paper reviews the power decoupling techniques of micro-inverters used in single-phase, grid-tied PV systems. The power decoupling techniques are categorized into three groups: (1) PV side decoupling; (2) DC link decoupling; and (3) AC side decoupling. Various topologies and techniques are presented, compared, and evaluated against the size of capacitance, efficiency and control complexity. Finally, potential topologies and technologies are pointed out as the best options for power decoupling implementation.
