Abstract
The work proposed in this paper focuses on providing an effective solution to shortage of power in rural areas with an effective technique implemented in an economically feasible way. The traditional Inverters used for either residential or commercial purposes consume electrical energy from the grid to fulfill the charging and discharging of the battery, which may lead to overloading. The shortcomings of the traditional inverters such as Non-Renewable nature of power sources, increased cost of manufacturing, and multi-stage conversion complexity, are considered by the researchers for improvement. As a result, an attempt has been made to provide a cost effective renewable energy system with single stage topology for AC power applications. Single stage power conversion with allowed shoot through state is used here to avoid additional components and reduce the switching losses. Unlike the traditional inverters, the Quasi Impedance Source Inverter that is brought forward can be utilized as a Standalone system or a capable backup at the time of power outages. Sinusoidal pulse width modulation (SPWM) is applied to attain reduced harmonics which are measured by observing the harmonic pattern in Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) curve. The lab results obtained through MATLAB simulation confirm the noteworthy diminution of THD level in the proposed system compared to the reported one. Usage of Photovoltaic (PV) Panel to tap energy with reduced stochastic fluctuations due to high filtering capacity of the proposed circuit, eliminating the need of additional filters, is the uniqueness of this technique.
