Implementation of Multilevel Inverter with reduce power electronics Components for Renewable Energy Source Application

Abstract

in this paper family of multilevel inverter topology with reduced number of power switches is presented. The proposed inverter can generate both even and odd level. The proposed topology is suitable for symmetric structure. The proposed symmetric inverter results in reduction of power switches, power diode and gate driver circuits and also it may further minimize the installation area and cost. To prove the superiority of proposed topology is compared with conventional topologies. The implemented hybrid energy system is used to generate and distribute power among the remote areas as the solar energy and wind energy are plenty in nature. Depending on the availability of the solar and wind energy, this system feeds the loads in standalone mode or hybrid mode. The proposed concept is implemented to 7 level, 11 level multilevel inverter MATLAB/Simulink software is used for themodeling and simulation of the hybrid energy system.
