Harnessing solar energy: Hardware implementation of solar power inverter

The rising demand for renewable energy sources, particularly solar power, has surged in recent years as a sustainable solution to global energy challenges. Solar power inverters show a crucial part in transforming solar-generated direct current (DC) into usable alternating current (AC), which is required for a number of applications across residential, commercial, and industrial sectors. This paper provides a concise overview of key aspects related to solar power inverters, highlighting their importance in the solar energy ecosystem. Specifically, this paper focuses on the design of Solar Inverter, which is needed to run AC loads and is primarily utilized for consumable purposes. Moreover, it delves into the principles and functioning of two widely-used inverter topologies: Push-Pull and H-Bridge. To validate the system, the circuit model is implemented on hardware, confirming its practicality. The developed inverter has a 100W power output, a 12V input voltage, and a 220V output with a 50Hz square wave output.
