Abstract

Model Predictive Control (MPC) has emerged as a very attractive alternative for the control of electrical energy. This paper discusses the challenges faced by (MPC) to reach industrial acceptance. Some of these issues are operation with fixed switching frequency and simple calculation of the weighting factors. The main conclusions are that the algorithm must remain simple and must demonstrate that it brings operating advantages in comparison to the classical linear control with Pulse Width Modulation. These problems have not been solved yet.
