  • Abstract
    This paper deals with a review of solar power station installation requirements. It investigates then an approach to demonstrate a typical station at the Australian College of Kuwait based on Matlab/Simulink. The entire conversion system is supposed to feed a proposed transformerless inverter topology to minimize losses as much as possible. The simulated results have showed promising results and a test bench is under construction to validate the approach.
