The concept of smart grids has enabled the addition of renewable energy resources in the utility grids. This integration is possible after energy conversion and energy conversion causes the degradation in the quality of electric power. The power quality can be enhanced by reducing the total harmonic distortion (THD) in energy conversion. In this paper, we have presented an improved artificial neural network (ANN) based approach that can be useful to reduce the THD levels in a cascaded H-bridge (CHB) multilevel inverter (MLI). The proposed ANN architecture consists of only one hidden layer with ten neurons and can generate accurate results in both overfitting and underfitting conditions. Due to a smaller number of neurons, the proposed architecture is less complex and can produce results relatively faster as compared to other ANN architectures available in the literature. The proposed ANN architecture is tested on an asymmetrical CHB MLI, and the results are compared with the recent state-of-the-art (SOTA) techniques. The CHB MLI under test had three DC voltage sources with 1:2:4 and inductive loads. The simulations are performed in MATLAB and Simulink environment and the switching angles are optimized by using the ANN architecture. The results have shown a 71.95% improvement in current THDs and a 13.91% improvement in voltage THDs as compared to the SOTA technique. The proposed configuration is 89.6% efficient on inductive load and uses a smaller number of switches. Finally, an experimental setup is created, and the simulation results are validated through various experiments.INDEX TERMS Artificial Neural Networks, Cascaded H-bridge, multi-level inverter, Solar PV system, Switching angles, Total harmonic distortion (THD).

“…Recent studies, summarized in Table 5, use EMS systems to connect MGs at LV distribution networks. With regard to renewable energy sources, both standalone and combined renewables must be connected to the power systems through DC-DC and/or DC-AC power converter topology [110]. Power converters are defined as a kind of electronic circuit used for energy conversion that convert electrical energy from a certain supply into energy suitable for loads (e.g., voltage or current with suitable frequency and/or amplitude) [111].…”

It is expected that distribution power systems will soon be able to connect a variety of microgrids from residential, commercial, and industrial users, and thus integrate a variety of distributed generation technologies, mainly renewable energy sources to supply their demands. Indeed, some authors affirm that distribution networks will propose significant changes as a consequence of this massive integration of microgrids at the distribution level. Under this scenario, the control of distributed generation inverters, demand management systems, renewable resource forecasting, and demand predictions will allow better integration of such microgrid clusters to decongest power systems. This paper presents a review of microgrids connected at distribution networks and the solutions that facilitate their integration into such distribution network level, such as demand management systems, renewable resource forecasting, and demand predictions. Recent contributions focused on the application of microgrids in Low-Voltage distribution networks are also analyzed and reviewed in detail. In addition, this paper provides a critical review of the most relevant challenges currently facing electrical distribution networks, with an explicit focus on the massive interconnection of electrical microgrids and the future with relevant renewable energy source integration.

“…The highly compact Fresnel systems and those of multi-solar towers, can offer spatial and aesthetic advantages on the roof surfaces of the buildings in cities. These can be used as combined heat and electric power systems where the plant is located close to the energy service consumer [51]. This practice has the additional benefit of the reduction of energy losses due to transportation, which are important in the case of large generating plants that are usually located on the outskirts of cities.…”
