Single Phase Grid-Connected Inverter for Photovoltaic System with Maximum Power Point Tracking

Abstract

This paper proposes a single-phase two stage inverter for grid-connected photovoltaic systems for residential applications. This system consists of a switch mode DC-DC boost converter and a H-bridge inverter. The switching strategy of proposed inverter consists with a combination of sinusoidal pulse width modulation (SPWM) and square wave along with grid synchronization condition. The performance of the proposed inverter is simulated under grid-connected scenario using MATLAB. Furthermore, the intelligent PV module system is implemented using a simple maximum power point tracking (MPPT) method utilizing power balance is also employed in order to increase the systems efficiency.
