Photovoltaic (PV) Generation System, Cascaded H- Bridge Multilevel Inverter, PI Controller
The harvesting of renewable solar energy is on demand due to the rising need of electricity in the current global scenario. PV generation system which is connected with Cascaded H-Bridge Multilevel Inverters. Many companies are striving to improve the performance of this system since electrical has become a very precious thing hence this paper proposes an idea as a solution to that by improving the system performance by reducing its THD and harmonics.
