The world demand for electrical energy is constantly increasing and conventional energy resources are diminishing and are at the edge of extinction, moreover their prices are rising. For all these reasons, the need for alternative energy sources has become necessary and solar energy in particular has proves to be very promising alternative because of its easy availability and plolution free nature. Due to increasing efficiency, decreasing cost of solar panels and improvement of the switching technology used for the conversion, we are interested in developing an inverter powered by solar panels and could supply stand alone AC loads. Solar panels produce DC and use them in home and industrial appliances, we should have ac output at certain required voltage level and frequency. Thus solar converts the solar energy to useful elecrical energy (DC to AC).
