The future of intelligent, robust, and adaptive control methods for PV grid-connected inverters is marked by increased autonomy, enhanced grid support, advanced fault tolerance, energy storage integration, and a focus on sustainability and user empowerment.
However, these methods may require accurate modelling and may have higher implementation complexity. Emerging and future trends in control strategies for photovoltaic (PV) grid-connected inverters are driven by the need for increased efficiency, grid integration, flexibility, and sustainability.
Between the CCM and VCM mode of VSI, the CCM is preferred selection for the grid-connected PV systems. In addition, various inverter topologies i.e. power de-coupling, single stage inverter, multiple stage inverter, transformer and transformerless inverters, multilevel inverters, and soft switching inverters are investigated.

Configurations of the grid-connected PV inverters The grid-connected inverters undergone various configurations can be categorized in to four types, the central inverters, the string inverters, the multi-string inverts and the ac module inverters.
In general, on the basis of transformer, the grid-connected PV inverter topologies are categorized into two groups, i.e., those with transformer and the ones which are transformerless. Line-frequency transformers are used in the inverters for galvanic isolation of between the PV panel and the utility grid.
