Performance investigation of double input enhanced converter for hybrid renewable energy

Abstract

Nowadays, power shortage turned into a massive issue in numerous countries because of increasing load demand, which cannot be solved by traditional energy power generation. These problematic circumstances motivate analysts to extract the most extreme electric power by concentrating on non-conventional energy sources. In order to extract the electric power, new extendable multi-input DC-DC converters are utilized to maximize the Power Conversion efficiency. The efficient power conversion is accomplished with minimum voltage stress across the semiconductor devices. This topology gives maximum voltage gains by expanding the quantity of input sources, thereby being appropriate for various requirements from minimum to maximum voltage/power in Hybrid Energy Systems (HES). This paper evaluates the present and the future trend of non-isolated DC-DC converters with different parameters investigated utilizing MATLAB Software. Because of the simulation result, the performances of various non-isolated converters are assessed and help to establish the appropriate converter with a specific power rating for hybrid renewable energy-based requirements.
