This Paper Presents Novel DC-DC Converter Based Closed Loop Control of BLDC Motor for SPV fed Water Pumping System Solar Photovoltaic (SPV) Array fed Water pumping System Utilizing Buck-boost DC-DC Converter in order to extract the maximum available power from Solar system. Solar energy has the greatest availability compared to other energy sources. For such solar PV systems, maximum power point tracking control is preferred for efficient operation. This concept is dealing with INC method which is one of the MPPT methods. This study deals with a buck–boost converter controlled solar photovoltaic (SPV) array fed water pumping in order to achieve the maximum efficiency of an SPV array and the soft starting of a permanent magnet brushless DC (BLDC) motor. The current sensors normally used for speed control of BLDC motor are completely eliminated. The speed of BLDC motor is controlled through the variable DC-link voltage of a voltage-source inverter (VSI). The VSI is operated by fundamental frequency switching, avoiding the losses due to high-frequency switching, in order to enhance the efficiency of the proposed system.

Photovoltaic (PV) based multilevel inverters (MLI) have emerged as one of the best alternatives for grid/standalone applications. MLIs offer high range power handling capability with low current and voltage distortion and lesser switching losses as compare to the traditional two-level inverter. Major challenges with generally used multilevel inverter topologies relates to capacitor voltage variation, modulation techniques, and control. The major center of attention of research in this paper is to build up sophisticated modulation and voltage balancing methods for multilevel inverter topologies, competent to reach capacitor voltage parameter and to decrease power switching losses of the inverters. The present paper focuses on closed-loop control of multilevel flying capacitor inverter (FCI). In FCI, the phase shift (PS) based pulse width modulation method is designed and investigated. The closed-loop controller is designed with input voltage control of MLI, whose source is solar PV based Boost converter. Reported simulation results prove the superiority of the closed loop control in maintaining the desired output voltage for various reference values.
