ABSTRACT

Solar power inverter is one of the core components in the PLTS system in order to produce the power or energy needed by the load. Solar power inverter is utilized to convert from DC energy (Direct Current) to AC (Alternating Current) to load. In this research, a simulation of a solar power inverter system on a photovoltaic system will be designed. Simulation needs to be done using SIMULINK-MATLAB software. Solar power inverter is developed using a boost converter as a controller and a Full Bridge Inverter. Boost converter is designed from 12VDC - 17 VDC to 300 VDC. Full-Bridge Inverter produces AC voltage of 240 VAC with modulation index 0.8 and frequency 60 Hz. Total Harmonic Distortion is 46.07%. Power of Photovoltaic Solar panels generated at 3500 watts by 1000 watt/m2 irradiation conditions and temperature temperatures of 25 degrees Celsius.
