Integrated Multi-Port Converter For Off - Grid Photovoltaic System

Abstract

The multi-port converter proposed in this work is used for the integration of many converters in a single system. The system is the solar dc-dc standalone converter with the battery storage. The proposed integrated multiport converter consists of three separate converters they are, bidirectional PWM converter, switched capacitor converter, series resonant converter. The numbers of switches are reduced and thus the loss in the power electronics circuit is also reduced. A 300 watts prototype model of the system is implemented and the hardware results obtained is discussed and the same system is simulated using matlab software and the results are matched.
