The extensive use of fossil fuel is destroying the balance of nature that could lead to many problems in the forthcoming era. Renewable energy resources are a ray of hope to avoid possible destruction. Smart grid and distributed power generation systems are now mainly built with the help of renewable energy resources. The integration of renewable energy production system with the smart grid and distributed power generation is facing many challenges that include addressing the issue of isolation and power quality. This paper presents a new approach to address the aforementioned issues by proposing a hybrid bypass technique concept to improve the overall performance of the grid-tied inverter in solar power generation. The topology with the proposed technique is presented using traditional H5, oH5 and H6 inverter. Comparison of topologies with literature is carried out to check the feasibility of the method proposed. It is found that the leakage current of all the proposed inverters is 9 mA and total harmonic distortion is almost about 2%. The proposed topology has good efficiency, common mode and differential mode characteristics.

Renewable energy source (RES) enables us to diversify our energy supply. Renewable energy sources are getting more and more widespread, mainly due to the fact that they generate energy by keeping the environment clean. This increases our security of supply and improves European competitiveness creating new industries, jobs, economic growth and export opportunities, whilst also reducing our greenhouse gas emissions. This article proposes a simulation of a three-phase low voltage grid with power generation from photovoltaic sources. The proposed system consists of 192 photovoltaic (PV) panels distributed in 32 rows with each 12 PV panels.

This article proposes a solution for smart grid technologies using renewable energy and has as main result the optimisation of energy generation and consum in a power system with distributed power generation from renewable resources, by designing and implementation an system platform for monitoring and transmission the message (phone via SMS) by consumers. This application make available to consumers real-time information about energy, giving them the opportunity to make smart choices, allowing them to reduce their monthly bills and carbon emissions, reducing also the demand during peak periods and allows a more efficient use of renewable energy resources.
