A zero voltage switching (ZVS) dc–dc converter with high voltage gain is proposed. It consists of a ZVS boost switch cell converter stage and a ZVS half-bridge converter stage with resonant converter and all these stages are merged into a single stage. The ZVS boost converter stage provides a continuous input current and ZVS operation of the power switches. The ZVS halfbridge converter stage pr...

This paper presents an evaluation of an optimal DC bus voltage regulation strategy for grid-connected photovoltaic (PV) system with battery energy storage (BES). The BES is connected to the PV system DC bus using a DC/DC buck-boost converter. The converter facilitates the BES power charge/discharge to compensate for the DC bus voltage deviation during severe disturbance conditions. In this way,...
