Micro-Grid Simulation and Integration with GRID using 13 Level Inverter

Abstract

The need for renewable energy systems (RES) continues to grow, and research into wind and solar systems has accelerated in recent years. At the moment, the world's energy requirements are heavily reliant on fossil fuels, which are on the verge of extinction. Renewable energy demand will skyrocket in the next years. Our study demonstrates a robust energy generating system that utilises photovoltaic MPPT and a 13-level inverter system in MATLAB simulink to maximise the output of the solar panel. To optimise the advantages of such network interface distribution systems, a control approach is developed. The inverter is programmed to perform several purposes, including active power filtering. Thus, the inverter may be employed as a power converter to power the network's renewable energy sources. The MATLAB / Simulink simulation is used to execute and verify all of the analyses by subjecting the system to dynamic load conditions.
