| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Photo voltaic generations and energy storage devices are promoted for effectively utilizing natural energy. DC micro-grids are one of the promising solution to realize high efficiency systems by reducing the number of the power conversion stages. The requirement of power converters used in the DC micro-grids becomes more severe compared with the conventional AC grid systems. The power flow controllers need high-speed and high-precision power flow control performance. This research proposes two solutions. First one is multi-level converters, and second one is flying capacitor linear amplifiers as the power flow controllers for realizing the required performance. As the results, design procedures of the power flow controllers and output filters have been clarified. It has been experimentally verified that the prototypes of the 7-level converters demonstrate a current response of 28 times faster than that of the conventional 2-level converters in an experimental condition.
