Comparison of Z Source and Embedded Z Source Inverters in Micro Wind Power Generation System

Abstract:

To meet the huge demand of power, the micro wind power generation system plays a major role in generating it at lesser cost. A comparison study between the single phase Z source and embedded Z source inverters in a micro wind power generation system are carried out. The unique feature of both the inverters is shoot through duty cycle by controlling which any desired output voltage even greater than input line voltage is possible. Both Buck-Boost capabilities in single stage conversion are possible. This is not possible in conventional inverters. The results of Z source and EZ source inverter systems are presented.
