Abstract
AbstractIn this paper, a PV-based standalone system with battery energy storage system using a Quadratic Boost Converter is presented. A constant voltage at the output is obtained using SMC mechanism. A conventional Sliding Mode Controller with linear sliding surface is chosen to generate firing pulses to Quadratic Boost converter. This paper highlights the advantage of Quadratic Boost Converter over the conventional Boost Converter for low-power applications. The output voltage of the conventional boost converter is less compared to Quadratic Boost Converter which has a high voltage gain. A Quadratic Boost converter is used to step up the input source voltage of 50 V to 240 V. The Quadratic Boost converter is operated in parallel with the energy storage system battery. The role of this battery is to share the power along with PV panel during the need of the hour. The simulations are performed in PSCAD v4.5 version and its corresponding outputs are analyzed.KeywordsSliding mode controller (SMC)Boost converter (BC)Quadratic boost converter (QBC)
