The multilevel inverter produces the stepped voltage waveforms with less distortion, less switching frequency, higher efficiency, lower voltage devices, and better electromagnetic compatibility. Multilevel inverter consists of an array of power semiconductor switches, capacitor voltage sources, and clamping diodes. Moreover, switches in the converter and active clamp circuit are integrated with a synchronous switching technique to reduce circuit complexity and component counts, resulting in a lower cost and smaller volume. To increase conversion efficiency, an active clamp circuit is introduced into the proposed one to provide soft switching features to reduce switching losses. The conversion efficiency is increased when CPWM is used as a control technique. The analogue chaotic PWM is used to reduce the EMI in boost converter. This approach ensures maximum power transfer under all atmospheric conditions. The maximum power tracking for PV panel using DC-DC converter is developed without using microcontroller. The various types of nonisolated DC-DC converters for the photo voltaic system is reviewed. characteristic curve of photovoltaic generators based on various DC-DC converters was proposed and concluded that SEPIC converter is the best alternative to track maximum power from PV panel. The power electronics interface, connected between a solar panel and a load or battery bus, is a pulse width modulated (PWM) DC-DC converter or their derived circuits used to extract maximum power from solar PV panel. The MATLAB/PSPICE model of the PV module is developed to study the effect of temperature and insolation on the performance of the PV module. To achieve this, a maximum power point tracker will be designed and implemented. In order to maximize the power derived from the solar panel, it is important to operate the panel at its optimal power point. The efficiency can drop further due to other factors such as solar panel temperature and load conditions.

Currently, solar panels are not very efficient with only about 12–20% efficiency in their ability to convert sunlight to electrical power. Introductionīecause of constantly growing energy demand, grid-connected photovoltaic (PV) systems are becoming more and more popular, and many countries have permitted, encouraged, and even funded distributed-power-generation systems. By using this method the overall system efficiency is improved thereby reducing the switching losses and cost. This model can extract PV power and boost by using dual boost converter with active snubber.

Also this model is based on mathematical equations and is described through an equivalent circuit including a PV source with MPPT, a diode, a series resistor, a shunt resistor, and dual boost converter with active snubber circuit. It is compared with parallel boost converter. The maximum power has been tracked experimentally. The primary goal of these systems is to increase the energy injected to the grid by keeping track of the maximum power point of the panel, by reducing the switching frequency, and by providing high reliability.

This paper also proposes a simplified multilevel (seven level) inverter for a grid-connected photovoltaic system. The conversion efficiency of the proposed MPPT system is increased when CPWM is used as a control scheme. The DC-DC MPPT circuit using chaotic pulse width modulation has been designed to track maximum power from solar PV module. The main objective of this work is to study the behaviour of the solar PV systems and model the efficient Grid-connected solar power system.
