The BiDFET Device and Its Impact on Converters

March 15, 2023 by B. Jayant Baliga

The matrix converter topology for direct ac-to-ac conversion offers elimination of the bulky and unreliable d.c. link capacitors used in the popular voltage-source inverter (VSI) with a front-end rectifier. The resulting more compact and higher efficiency implementation is a desirable solution for a wide variety of applications, such as photovoltaic energy generation, motor … [Read more...] about The BiDFET Device and Its Impact on Converters

Energy generating systems transcending into the renewable and clean fuel domain has put solar photovoltaic (SPV) systems in an unprecedented position of importance in the fuel and energy sector. However, lower efficiencies offered by these systems in comparison with traditional power generating systems such as coal-fired plants, has demanded the use of multiple techniques to … [Read more...] about A Novel High-Speed Sensorless Faulty Panel Detection Technique for an SPV String/Array

Maximum Power Point in a Single Step: A Novel Method for PV Industry

September 1, 2021 by Sreedhar Madichetty, Sukumar Mishra, and Avram John Neroth

The environmental concerns linked to traditional power generation methods have driven solar photovoltaic (SPV) systems to be established as a clean and viable alternative power solution [1]. However, SPV systems are associated with low energy conversion efficiency attributes. This highlights the need for an efficient power conversion system [2]. SPV sources showcase a nonlinear … [Read more...] about Maximum Power Point in a Single Step: A Novel Method for PV Industry
