COMPARISON BETWEEN FIVE-LEVEL AND SEVENLEVEL

ACTIVE NEUTRAL POINT CLAMPED CONVERTER FOR
PHOTOVOLTAIC ENERGY GENERATION

ABSTRACT:

When the medium and high power applications are concerned, we are in
need of multilevel converters like Active neutral point clamped (ANPC),
Flying capacitor (FC), Neutral point clamped converter (NPC), Photo Voltaic
systems (PV). These converters can provide enticing solution for the
renewable energy conversion. Developing high voltage rating converters of
more than 6.6kV is a key goal for solar energy based industries. The utmost
power capacity of the photovoltaic plants has extremely inflated over the
past few years and it's expected to increase its capacity over the succeeding
decade as the result of the increasing demand of renewable energy and
distributed generation systems. This paper presents a seven-level active
neutral point clamped (ANPC) inverter for the minimization of total harmonic
distortion of voltage.
The output voltage will be obtained from the ANPC multilevel inverter with
the specified amount of voltage level patterns. The seven level active neutral
point clamped converter is to be simulated using MATLAB software.
