Abstract

This paper proposes increasing the efficiency of the autonomous Photovoltaic (PV) system by utilizing zeta converter alongside neutral point clamped multilevel inverters (NPC-MLI) based on innovative PWM scheme. The PV system acts as an input source and the relevant control of zeta converter through maximum power point tracking (MPPT) offers the maximum available power from the PV array connected to DC-link. To obtain a high voltage gain we need to exhaust the dc-link voltage as much as possible and reduce stress on the switches. For this the NPC-MLI algorithm approaches PWM technique to perform capacitive charging in parallel and discharging in series to obtain maximum voltage gain. The proposed scheme is designed and verified via detailed simulations in the MATLAB/Simulink environment.

Abstract

Electric power generation and consumption are indicating an unprecedented change in recent decades. Electrical power industry and transportation sector lie at the core of this development and hence this change. This change is one of the major causes of polluting environmental and global warming. So, to decrease the dependency on conventional fuels and greenhouse gas emissions, countries around the globe are actively finding alternative energy resources. It will help to develop clean and green energies to build a sustainable society. Simultaneously, energy utilization in the field of transportation is witnessing a change from fossil fuel to electricity-based fuel. Electrified transportation system is a solution to endorse sustainable energy development and addressing environmental pollution, global warming issues. In this paper, an EV battery charger is designed with a two-stage charging model to achieve good efficiency. The design is simulated by using MATLAB simulation and compared with the existing model. The simulation results show that the proposed model is superior to the traditional model.
