This paper presents a novel double closed-loop PI controller design method for a three-phase inverter based on a binary-coded extremal optimization (BCEO) algorithm. . To address the issue of high Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) in three-phase grid-tied inverters, this study proposes a novel three-phase LCL grid-tied inverter. The use of LCL filters in power converters in microgrid applications is more preferred compared with L or LC filters because of their better harmonic attenuation capability.
