Performance analysis of a novel hybrid boosting converter for renewable energy applications

The design of hybrid boosting converter has gained significant advantage of voltage regulation from its boost structure by the gain enhancement from its voltage multiplier structure. Many works are reported for the design of hybrid boost converter which consists of single switch, single inductor by employing bipolar voltage multiplier. The converters are designed with less component stress and small amount of output ripple. The investigations for the performance analysis of the converter achieves extremely large voltage conversion ratio. The proposed design can boost the input voltage nearly to a significant level with less number of switches and inductors while maintaining high efficiency compared to recently reported works in the literature.
