Abstract

Transformerless inverters are increasingly favored in grid-connected photovoltaic (PV) systems due to their higher efficiency, reduced size, and lower cost. This paper presents a novel transformerless inverter topology that integrates buck boost conversion with an advanced fuzzy logic controller (FLC) to enhance energy extraction and power quality under dynamically changing solar conditions. The proposed system employs a sine triangle pulse width modulation (PWM) scheme in conjunction with the FLC to improve waveform quality and system responsiveness. By dynamically adapting to variations in irradiance and load, the control strategy reduces the total harmonic distortion (THD) from 36.51% to 1.51%, significantly enhancing compliance with international grid standards. Additionally, a novel grounding technique is implemented to mitigate common mode leakage currents, a typical issue in transformerless systems, without the need for galvanic isolation. Comprehensive MATLAB/Simulink simulations validate the inverter’s performance, demonstrating superior dynamic behavior, harmonic suppression, and overall reliability. The proposed architecture offers a compact, cost effective, and high performance solution for next generation grid integrated solar PV systems.
