Synopsis

A new control algorithm for the proposed system is also presented in order to control the power delivery between the solar PV, battery and grid which simultaneously provides maximum power point tracking (MPPT) operation for the solar PV . Using this systems save solar energy, reduce pollution ,less total harmonic distortion (THD) ,as well as and lower maintenance .Cost also efficient .We used solar energy plays an important role in electricity generation in our project .Solar photovoltaic (PV) system and battery storage, which is implemented using a three level neutral-point-clamped (NPC) inverter. An inverter is an electrical device that converts direct current (DC) to alternating current (AC); the resulting AC can be at any required voltage and frequency with the use of appropriate transformers, switching, and control circuits. Renewable energy (solar energy) plays an important role in electricity generation. Proposed work . The solar inverter consist of solar panel , controller , inverter & batteries , all of which can function independently without utility . The solar system are now being used widely in different fields, like street lighting , traffic , telecommunications base ,large scale billboards & home power. In this paper, a novel configuration of a three-level neutral-point-clamped (NPC) inverter that can integrate solar photovoltaic (PV) with battery storage in a grid-connected system is proposed. The strength of the proposed topology lies in a novel, extended unbalance three-level vector modulation technique that can generate the correct ac voltage under unbalanced dc voltage conditions.
