In this work, we develop a zero-sequence model to analyze the zero-sequence current, i.e., circulating current, in multiple paralleled power converters. On this basis, we propose and verify a novel and simple solution: predictive zero-sequence current control (PZSC$^2$) to freely mitigate the zero-sequence current. The proposed technique is implemented in a direct model predictive control framework via a synthesized voltage vector, which consists of an optimal shrunken voltage vector and a zero voltage vector. The former is selected to minimize the tracking error of the $\alpha \beta$-axis current, while the latter is properly selected to mitigate the circulating current. Notably, the zero voltage vector is solely determined by the zero-sequence current direction, without using other converters’ operating knowledge. This permits the proposed PZSC$^2$ to operate in a self-governing manner, fitting the spatially distributed applications. We validate the proposed solution through a lab-constructed hardware test bench. Experimental results verify its effectiveness considering both steady-state and transient performance.
