Sustainable energy is the unconventional way that helps us to produce unlimited energy for ourselves so that we can use it without harming the environment. Of all renewable sources, Solar energy source is only one unlimited source that is environment friendly and has zero greenhouse effect. The solar cell is one way to collect solar photon energy and convert this energy into electrical energy that has already been invented. In this paper, we are trying to boost the solar output voltage by using the boost converter circuit. This paper proposes to boost the low voltage of the photovoltaic array by using the boost converter circuit and gain a higher output voltage. This paper investigates the modeling and simulating the photovoltaic module using MATLAB simulation along with the boost converter that will give the 95 % efficiency from the previous model. When investigating the maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) algorithms have improved for better efficiency.

Most of the application of solar PV in Indonesia uses inverter, which is a complex and expensive electronics system. Many of the PV plants are in fault condition due to the failure of the inverter. This paper proposed DC wirings powered by solar PV for houses in the urban area of Indonesia. First, the paper reviewed the availability of electrical appliances powered by DC voltage supply. Secondly, it presents AC and DC house wiring designs for a house with 1 300 VA electrical power limit. Losses of both wirings are analyzed and compared, including the cost of wirings materials. The survey showed appliances such as air conditioning, fridgefreezer, television, washing machine, and other appliances are now available in DC voltage supply. A 48 V DC bus is chosen to minimize losses. From a cost perspective, AC and DC wiring systems are comparable, but the DC house is slightly more expensive due to the cost of appliances. The cost of DC wirings is lower due to the lower cost of the DC-DC converters and uses fewer conductors. The results provide an alternative to using solar PV directly distributed as DC voltage for the houses in the urban area of the country.

“…This structure had the advantages of high frequency voltage transformation, high efficiency, and high voltage operation. Study [5] proposed a wide input voltage, high-efficiency non-isolated DC/DC converter that solved the problem of large fluctuation in the input voltage, and had a simple structure, high efficiency, and strong anti-interference ability. Study [6] proposed a novel non-isolated, zero-voltage switching (ZVS), interleaved DC-DC boost converter that recycled energy stored in the inductor by using a coupled inductor and an active clamp circuit.…”

Intended for the high voltage gain and wide-range operation of DC/DC converters for photovoltaic energy storage systems, a topology for four-phase interleaved DC/DC converters for photovoltaic power generation is proposed. This topology increases output voltage for output in series, and reduces the input current ripple by paralleling the input. Compared with traditional boost converter topology, the proposed topology reduces the output current and output voltage ripple, reduces the stress of the switching device, and reduces the withstanding voltage of the output capacitor under the premise of ensuring the boost ratio. Experimental results show that the maximum efficiency of the converter reaches 95.37%. Compared with traditional boost converters, the proposed converter offers obvious advantages in efficiency under the conditions that the output voltage and load are variable.
