- In this paper a Single Ended Primary Inductor Converter (SEPIC) with high static gain is proposed for renewable energy applications especially for photovoltaic cell. The advantages of SEPIC are continuous input current and gives constant output voltage even though the range of source voltage is large. Thus this converter is preferred to step up / step down the solar panel input voltage. The simulation results are taken in MATLAB / SIMULINK which shows that a high voltage gain is achieved. In addition to this, it also achieves high efficiency by reducing the circulating current. The proto type kit has the rated input voltage is taken as 15 V DC, the voltage across the SEPIC converter is 150 V DC at switching frequency 65 kHz and the load voltage is 150 AC.
