Single phase five-level inverter topology with reduced number of switches for PV application

Because of the high-power request and the diminishing of petroleum product sources, Many nations around the globe utilities renewable energy, for example, wind, tidal, and photo-voltaic (PV) for electricity generation. One of the significant perspectives that ought to be considered in Photovoltaic application is the utilization of grid-connected multilevel inverter (MLI) has created enough buzz in the field of research. The classical topologies have proven to be great alternatives for a range of high-power medium voltage application, the research in new topologies is still growing. One of the most important objectives is the reduction of overall component count in the classical MLIs. In the present paper, the analysis of some newly derived Multilevel Inverters along with a diminished number of switches is done. It also accounts for most of the difficulties faced in an attempt to reduce the total number of switches. And also, N level MLI inverter using this topology as a reference. (c) 2021 Elsevier Ltd.
