Implementation of New Three Phase Modular Multilevel Inverter for Renewable Energy Applications
Journal Title: IOSR Journals (IOSR Journal of Electrical and Electronics Engineering) - Year 2017, Vol 12, Issue 3
Abstract
This project proposes a new three-phase modular multilevel inverter (MMLI) for renewable applications. The cascaded multilevel inverters are the most favourable topologies of multilevel converters. This project introduces a new multilevel inverter topology in which the numbers of independent dc voltage sources are reduced. Beside the number of dc voltage sources, in the proposed topology the number of switches is also reduced in comparison with that of the conventional cascaded multilevel inverter. A new modified pulse-width modulation method i.e. sinusoidal pulse width modulation is successfully applied to proposed inverter. To verify the applicability and performance of the proposed structure in PV renewable energy environment, simulation results are carried out by MATLAB/SIMULINK.
