An Investigation on Performance Analysis of PV Inverters with Modified MPPT Technique and LUO Converter
Abstract
A rapid growth in technology has increased the demand for power. Hence to overcome the upgrowing power demand, solar energy system comes into existence. But, the power acquired from PV is very low. Hence to satisfy the desires of high voltage applications, many traditional DC/DC converters are originated. In this proposed work, ahigh gain Luo converter is employed to increase the voltage level of the PV system.
