The above five single-phase PV inverters under the hybrid UPWM method with reactive power injection have representative characteristics in terms of structure, leakage current suppression, conversion efficiency, loss distribution, and commutation oscillation.
According to the power levels, PV inverters can be classified into three types, including module-level micro-inverters (e.g., residential PV systems), string inverters for medium and high power applications (e.g., offices or industrial PV power systems), and utility-scale central inverters (e.g., PV plants) [5, 6].
Nowadays, the fast development of wide-bandgap (WBG) devices brings new challenges to transformerless inverters, e.g., electromagnetic interference (EMI) issues, but efficiency can be improved. This paper first reviews the full-bridge PV inverters seen from the perspective of topology configuration.
As mentioned previously, full-bridge single-phase PV inverters have better performance of power density due to their split symmetrical AC inductors structure. The full-bridge PV inverters discussed in this paper can be separated into four groups.
However, such countermeasures are generally implemented simultaneously and are not individually quantified. In this study, we evaluate and quantify the efficiency of each countermeasure
