Abstract :
Renewable energy resources are the major demand of the day. As fossil fuels are limited so we just can´t rely on them especially in this new age where the demand of energy has increased drastically. Solar energy can be one of the effective renewable energy sources. This is a new way of looking at a solar panel that we can generate alternating current directly from photovoltaic cells. We can use an array of photovoltaic cell pairs that are connected in anti-parallel form to create an AC wave form. Solar panels today produce DC power which has to be firstly converted into AC to be mostly used in business and home appliances. Solar panels become very expensive when we add solar panel´s price joint with the price of inverters and phase synchronizers. In addition to that the power losses of different components that are used in the DC to AC converters so it becomes even more unappealing. We show a new technique for the generation of AC power from Solar panel devoid of inverter. By adopting this technique we can remove power losses due to an inverter. There is no need of batteries in our technique so overall cost is also reduced. Another very good aspect of this technique is that we get a very pure sine wave of better efficiency than that of an AC inverter. We can generate the sine wave of any frequency by just controlling the speed of motor used in this technique. So it is a very simple technique with great effects.
