Efficiency analysis of a full bridge-switched capacitor based DC-DC stage for low voltage PV Current Source Inverter operation
This paper examines experimental data obtained from a DC-DC stage proposed to supply a Current source inverter structure. This stage has been proposed for operation with low voltage input photovoltaic panels. The paper discusses the sizing strategies and basic control considerations that can optimize system efficiency achieving over 97% efficiency between 50% to 80% of maximum load. The paper also considers solar panel sizing strategies to achieve maximum efficiency.
