In this paper, a parallel operation strategy for inverters based on improved adaptive droop control and Equivalent Input Disturbance (EID) is proposed. . olved in order to improve the power supply quality and reliability. Parallel operation of inverter-based distributed generation systems, in the two modes of islanded microgrid operation and grid-connected operation, brings many control challenges to the microgrid including load sharing, stab lity. . The operation of parallel inverters in microgrids is an important way to expand system capacity, but there are problems of circulating current fluctuations and power sharing errors in parallel inverters' operation. Normally the AC microgrid is composed of hybrid inverters, other power generation equipment and some loads in parallel. Droop control or virtual syn-chronous generator is usually. . This paper proposes the study of a microgrid system based on photovoltaic sources capable of ensuring the operation in autonomous mode and grid connection mode considering the optimal power flow control using the Droop controller and the power quality improvement using an Active Power Filter.
