Abstract
This Paper deals with the performance analysis of PV fed zeta converter. Zeta converter is designed with an intention to be used for charging a battery, which can be used to power the streetlights. Zeta converter like Sepic converter topology provides a non-inverted output voltage. It provides a constant output voltage though there is variation in the input voltage. The proposed scheme consists of solar panel, Zeta converter and a PI controller. The closed loop control of a Zeta converter fed from PV panel is simulated using MATLAB.
