ABSTRACT

This chapter classifies various high static gain DC-DC converter for renewable energy sources. Most of the renewable energy resources are low voltage characteristics in nature. To step up the voltage for required voltage condition, high step-up DC-DC converters are utilized. Various DC-DC converters like nonisolated, isolated, bidirectional and three portbased converters along with their types are explained in detail.
