Introduction

• The main aim of this project is to use solar energy for

household loads using an inerter. Solar energy is converted
to electrical enerEy by photo- voltaic(PV) cells.
• This energy is stored in batteries during day time for the
utilization purpose whenever required.
• A solar inverter, or PV inverter, converts the direct current
(DC) output of a photovoltaic solar panel into a utility
frequency alternating current (AC) that can be fed into a
commercial electrical grid or used by a local, off-line
electrical network.
Solar inverters may be classified into
three broad types
• Stand-alone inverters
• Grid-tie inverters
• Battery backup inverters
Grid-Tie Inverters

• It match phase with a utility-supplied sine wave.

• Grid-tie inverters are designed to shut down
automatically upon loss of utility supply.
• They do not provide backup power during utility
outages.
• Grid tie inverter converts DC power produced by PV
array to AC power.
Stand-Alone Inverters

• It is used in isolated systems.

• The inverter draws its DC energy from batteries
charged by photovoltaic arrays
• Many stand-alone inverters also incorporate integral
battery chargers to replenish the battery from an AC
source.
• Normally these do not interface in any way with the
utility grid.
• It does not required to have anti-islanding protection.
Battery Backup Inverters

• These are special inverters which are designed to

draw energy from a battery.
• It manage the battery charge via an on board
charger, and export excess energy to the utility grid.
• These inverters are capable of supplying AC energy
to selected loads during a utility outage The battery
backup inverters are also required to be installed
with an anti- islanding protection.
Hardware Requirements

• Bridge-MOSFETS drive
• Step up Transformer
• Voltage regulator
• MOSFET driver
• PWM inverter IC
• Solar Panel
• Battery
Battery

An electrical battery is a
combination of one or more
electrochemical cells, used to
convert stored chemical energy
into electrical energy.
BC547 (NPN -
Transistor)
The BC547 transistor is an NPN
Epitaxial Silicon Transistor.
It is used in general-purpose
switching and amplification.
MOSFET(IRF
510)
The metal-oxide-semiconductor
field-effect transistor (MOSFET,
MOSs FET, or MOS FET) is a device
used for amplifying or switching
electronic signals
The basic principle of the device a
voltage on the oxide-insulated gate
electrode can induce a conducting
channel between the two other
contacts called source and drain.
It is by far the most common
transistor in both digital and analog
circuits though the bipolar junction
transistor was at one time much
more common.
Solar Panel
Solar panel refers to a panel
designed to absorb the sun's rays
as a source of energy for
generating electricity.
Solar Panel is an array of Several
solar cells (Photovoltaic cells).
The arrays can be formed by
connecting them in parallel or
series connection depending
upon the energy required.
Working of Solar Panel and Inverter

• Expose the cell to light, and the energy from each photon
(light particle) hitting the silicon, will liberate an electron
and a corresponding hole.
• If this happens within range of the electric field's influence,
the electrons will be sent to the N side and the holes to the
P one, resulting in yet further disruption of electrical
neutrality.
• This flow of electrons is a current; the electrical field in the
cell causes a voltage and the product of these two is power.
• The solar energy is stored in the battery from Photo-Voltaic
cells.
Working of Solar
Panel and Inverter

This stored energy of the battery

is converted to AC supply of S0Hz
frequency using PWM inverter IC
with MOSFET Bate driver IC to
the driver MOSFET bridge and
step-up the voltage by a
transformer.
Needs Of Solar Power

• Electricity rate has hiked in last four years.

• We need to focus on altemate option because of
environmental concerns.
• It has several advantages over other forms of
electricity generation.
About The Inverter

• This energy generated by the panel, in the form of direct current

(DC), is transmitted to the inverter.
• The job of the inverter is to convert the DC power the solar panel
has generated to alternating current (AC) that is transmitted on
the grid.
• The inverter converts DC to AC by using two switches which
convert the positive only DC power to an alternating positive to
negative AC power
• The inverter will then step up the voltage from 12 volts to
120volts, which is the voltage used throughout the US electrical
grid.
• This conversion of voltage is what allows a 12 volt DC solar polar
to be tied into a 120 volt AC grid.
Advantage

• High efficiency and outstanding enegy harvest in a

small modular design.
• Ease of installation to save time and money.
• Is compatible with other GT Series models to
customize the inverters to the array.
• Central and micro inverters can be up to 95%
efficlent.
Applications

• Can use Solar Inverter for domestic application.

• It can be plugs in your house for your TV, computer,
and other wired products.
• Can use Solar Power Inverters For Industrial
Application.
Conclusion

• Inverters are usually about 95% efficient. Inverters

play a significant role in providing alternate current
supplies at the times of crucial power
requirements.
• The primary use of solar inverters is to convert
direct current to alternating current through an
electrical switching process.
