7 level symmetrical inverter for photovoltaic system

This research presents the design, implementation, and evaluation of a seven-level symmetrical inverter for photovoltaic systems. The inverter is based on a cascaded H-bridges topology with distinct DC assets and is capable of efficiently converting DC power from a photovoltaic system to AC power with low Total Harmonic Distortion (THD). The system consists of a solar panel, charge controller, battery bank, and a multilevel inverter circuit. The inverter employs Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) techniques to control the output voltage and frequency, ensuring that it is suitable for the AC load. The performance of the inverter is analyzed using Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) to determine the THD, and the results are compared with those of other multilevel inverter topologies such as diode clamped (neutral clamped) and flying capacitors. The efficiency of the seven-level symmetrical inverter is evaluated under different load conditions and compared with other multilevel inverters to determine potential energy savings and performance improvements. The analysis provides insights into the advantages and limitations of the seven-level symmetrical inverter for photovoltaic systems, highlighting the importance of distinct DC assets in achieving high efficiency and low THD. The results of this research can be useful for designing and implementing high-performance and cost-effective photovoltaic systems.
