Abstract

Renewable energies have been growing worldwide in the recent years to avoid environmental degradation. Among the renewable sources, solar energy is regarded as the most promising candidate and is expected to be the foundation of a sustainable energy economy, as sunlight is the most abundant resource. Recently, standalone building integrated photovoltaic systems (SBIPVs) have risen as a solution to reduce the electrical needs of buildings, in which photovoltaic cells are integrated into the construction envelope. The need for further integration between photovoltaic systems and batteries is of paramount importance, requiring an improvement in the energy conversion paradigm.&#13;&#13;The development of a three-port bidirectional converter for SBIPVs is the main focus of this project. A review of currently in research topologies is done, selecting the most suitable for the application. A theoretical analysis of the selected topology is performed, with a validation of the computations present in the reference paper. A simulation of the converter circuit is designed to assess its different characteristics and operating range. A design procedure is followed with a choice of the different parameters that will define the converter in order to meet the requirements of the application in hand, with a theoretical and simulation analysis process. A prototype of the designed converter is finally done to experimentally validate its functionality through a testing phase.

Abstract

Nowadays, power electronics is an enabling technology in the energy development scenario. Furthermore, power electronics is strictly linked with several fields of technological growth, such as consumer electronics, IT and communications, electrical networks, utilities, industrial drives and robotics, and transportation and automotive sectors. Moreover, the widespread use of power electronics enables cost savings and minimization of losses in several technology applications required for sustainable economic growth. The topologies of DC–DC power converters and switching converters are under continuous development and deserve special attention to highlight the advantages and disadvantages for use increasingly oriented towards green and sustainable development. DC–DC converter topologies are developed in consideration of higher efficiency, reliable control switching strategies, and fault-tolerant configurations. Several types of switching converter topologies are involved in isolated DC–DC converter and nonisolated DC–DC converter solutions operating in hard-switching and soft-switching conditions. Switching converters have applications in a broad range of areas in both low and high power densities. The articles presented in the Special Issue titled "Advanced DC-DC Power Converters and Switching Converters" consolidate the work on the investigation of the switching converter topology considering the technological advances offered by innovative wide-bandgap devices and performance optimization methods in control strategies used.

Abstract

Renewable energies are becoming a must to counteract the consequences of the global warming. More efficient devices and better control strategies are required in the generation, transport, and conversion of electricity. Energy is processed by power converters that are currently the key building blocks in modern power distribution systems. The associated electrical architecture is based on buses for energy distribution and uses a great number of converters for interfacing both input and output energy. This book shows that sliding-mode control is contributing to improve the performances of power converters by means of accurate theoretical analyses that result in efficient implementations. The sliding-mode control of power converters for renewable energy applications offers a panoramic view of the most recent uses of this regulation technique in practical cases. By presenting examples that range from dozens of kilowatts to only a few watts, the book covers control solutions for AC–DC and DC–AC generation, power factor correction, multilevel converters, constant-power load supply, wind energy systems, efficient lighting, digital control implementation, multiphase converters, and energy harvesting. The selected examples developed by recognized specialists are illustrated by means of detailed simulations and experiments to help the reader to understand the theoretical approach in each case considered in the book.
