Abstract: The voltage source inverter is mainly used for grid interfacing of distributed generation systems. In order to boost the voltage of a renewable energy source to the required dc voltage level, a dc-dc converter is necessary even though the cost and complexity of the system are increased.
Usage of Grid-Connected Inverters (GCI) increased dramatically nowadays. These systems are used in Active Power Filters (APF), static synchronous var compensators (STATCOM), grid connected photovoltaic systems, grid connection of wind turbines and in Fig. 1 general topology of the grid connected inverter is shown.
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.
Do not leave the design powered when unattended. Grid connected inverters (GCI) are commonly used in applications such as photovoltaic inverters to generate a regulated AC current to feed into the grid.
