This thesis presents a design of Single-phase Single stage String Inverter for Grid Connected Photovoltaic (PV) system. The proposed system use Integrated Perturb and Observe (P&O) - Fuzzy Logic Control (FLC) as a Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) technique. Previous works on single-phase single stage inverter comes with various types of circuit configuration and switching techniques incorporating with MPPT. However, each topology has their advantages and disadvantages and also has their own circuit limitation. Therefore, the proposed single stage converter is designed to reduce number of power switching components with higher power conversion efficiency. The new control scheme of MPPT and Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) control technique implemented on one power circuit (single stage) without boosted DC-link is introduced.
