Abstract

The use alternative sources of Power Generation is the need of today. In general, the
renewable energy resources are pollution free (Such as Wind, Hydro, Solar), easily
constructible, and require less maintenance as compared to conventional energy sources
(Such as Natural gas and oil). Most effective method for generation of Power, among
renewable energy sources, is photovoltaic system (using solar cell). Solar Photovoltaic
System is easy to install, clean and light. Once installed, it has no recurring expenditure
except the battery. This Paper deals with connecting solar system with 3 phase grid system.
Thereby reducing the need of battery. MPPT technique is used to extract the maximum
power obtained from the sun radiation and transfer it to grid. Three phase inverter is also
used to convert DC, of boost converter, into AC, which is fed into grid. Further, harmonic is
also reduced from the grid by using filters.
