In this paper, we are using multilevel inverter by using switching capacitor for PV grid. Now a day’s multilevel inverters have become more popular over the years in electric high power application with the promise of less disturbances and the possibility to function at lower switching frequencies than ordinary two-level inverters. So by cascading multilevel inverter the output voltage will be ...

This paper deals with the implementation of cascade multilevel inverter-based STATCOM, which employs H-bridge inverter. The STATCOM system is modeled using the d-q transform, which calculates the instantaneous reactive power.
