Abstract

This paper presents the analysis of a static conversion system for treatment of the solar energy from photovoltaic panels. This system is interconnected with the mains power supply, contributing to the generation of the electrical energy. The power structure is composed of a current-fed push-pull converter, a buck converter, and a current inverter. The main features of the system are: simple control strategy, robustness, lower harmonic distortion of the current and natural isolation. The principle of operation, design procedure and experimental results are presented
