In order to increase the conversion efficiency in photovoltaic (PV) systems, different configurations and topologies were developed. Depending on the application, the converters used for grid connection are built using one or two conversion stages. The advantages of the converters with a DC-stage are mainly the distributed maximum power point tracking algorithm per PV string, a wider range of operation,...
This paper presents an isolated medium-voltage, high-power-quality and high efficiency (over 96%), fast charger for plug-in electric vehicles. The proposed fully modular fast charger uses off-the-shelf Silicon Carbide (SiC) power devices to convert the rectified single-phase 2.4 kV medium-voltage input to variable dc output. The adopted input-series-output-parallel unidirectional topology enables...
A new galvanically isolated DC-DC converter has been presented in this paper. The proposed topology is based on the quasi-switched-boost impedance network. It not only includes all positive characteristics of previous converters including continuous input current, high boost ability and high efficiency, but also has the prominent features of less passive elements utilization, small size and light...
The concept of HVDC taps drawing small amount of power from HVDC lines to the rural places has been considered for several decades. Most of the earlier tap converters were limited by its loss, cost, reliability, and control difficulties. However, in this paper, the emerging modular multilevel converter (MMC) is adopted as the series HVDC tap, which reveals significantly improved performance and feasibility...
