Abstract: Converting devices are quickly becoming the most important part of renewable energy-producing systems that are linked to the grid. Applications that are linked to the grid are the most common place to find usage for two-port power converters that are built using single-input and single-output (SISO) ports. The incorporation of SISO power converters into the grid-connected hybrid system results in an increase in both its size and its cost. Multiple power sources may be connected to a single DC bus by means of hybrid power systems, which make use of multi-input power converters. To combine the hybrid wind and PV system with a common DC bus, this study suggests an isolated multi-input single-output (IMISO) Z-Source converter. It has been determined that the suggested system performs well in spite of dynamic load fluctuations and shifting input voltage circumstances. The sliding mode controller (SMC) has also been used to control a single-phase five-level (SPFL) inverter. The purpose of developing the laboratory prototype model was to verify the proposed IMISO Z-source converter-fed single-phase five-level (SPFL) inverter in the context of the circumstance that is being investigated.
