Energy conversion techniques are key in power electronics and even more so in renewable energy source systems, which require a large number of converters. This book describes advanced conversion technologies and provides design examples of converters and inverters for renewable energy systems-including wind turbine and solar panel energy systems. It presents more than 200 topologies of advanced converters developed by the authors, pioneers in the field, including 150 updated circuits on modern conversion technologies. The book also offers cutting-edge techniques for determining accurate solutions and explores numerous industrial applications.

Renewable energy systems require a large number of converters and inverters. A concise, useful reference for engineering students and professionals, this book describes advanced DC/AC inverters and their applications in wind turbine and solar panel energy systems. It introduces more than 100 topologies of advanced PWM and multilevel inverters originally developed by the authors, including more than 50 new circuits. The authors also explain how to find the best switching angles to obtain the lowest total harmonic distortion (THD) for multilevel inverters.

Aims to describe the theory of Digital Power Electronics and its applications. This book applies digital control theory to power electronics in a manner different from the traditional, analog control scheme. It defines a number of parameters, including the energy factor, pumping energy, stored energy, time constant, and damping time constant.
