Over the last decade, energy demand from the power grid has increased significantly due to
the increasing number of users and the emergence of high-power industries. This has led to …

In photovoltaic (PV) applications, a transformer is often used to provide galvanic isolation
and voltage ratio transformations between input and output. However, these conventional …

The markedly increased integration of renewable energy in the power grid is of significance
in the transition to a sustainable energy future. The grid integration of renewables will be …

The relative share of renewable energy, specifically the solar photovoltaic (PV), is increasing
exponentially in the world electric energy sector. This is a cumulative result of reduction in …

Conventional power electronic interfaces for multisource applications always need multiple
conversion stages as intermediate dc–dc power conversion stages are inevitably installed …

Cascaded multilevel inverter (CMI) is one of the most popular multilevel inverter topologies.
This topology is synthesized with some series-connected identical H-bridge cells. CMI …

As deployment of power electronic coupled generation such as photovoltaic (PV) systems
increases, grid operators have shown increasing interest in calling on inverter-coupled …

Transformerless inverters are extensively employed in grid-connected photovoltaic (PV)
generation systems due to its advantages of achieving low cost and high efficiency …

An enhanced DC-DC converter is proposed in this paper, based on the combination of the
Cuk and SEPIC converters, which is well-suited for solar photovoltaic (PV) applications. The …

Switched-capacitor-based multilevel inverters for boost-type dc–ac power conversions
usually exhibit a trade-off between the switch count and switch-voltage rating, ie, a reduction …
