Abstract
Renewable energy sources such as fuel cell, solar, Magneto hydro Dynamic (MHD), geothermal are the best alternatives to solve the problem of environmental issue and increasing demand of energy. The output of these resources is dc, therefore to connect these resources to the grid, multilevel inverter is the key device. But the output of multilevel inverter has power quality issues such as harmonic generation and notching due to conversion of dc to ac and high number of switch. Hence, this paper deals with harmonic elimination using Genetic Algorithm based Selective Harmonic Elimination (GA-SHE) techniques for asymmetric and symmetric topology of MLI. In the present study, comparative study among various multilevel inverters with reduced number of switches topologies has been discussed. A novel topology of single phase 15-level inverter which consists least number of switches has been designed for a desired voltage level. Also, the comparison of Total harmonic distortion(THD) developed in the proposed 15-level inverter with output voltage generated by different topology at different levels are discussed. The output of proposed topology contains THD (<5%) as per IEEE 519 standard.
