Multi-level Inverters (MLIs) are widely used for conversion of DC to AC power. This book provides various low-switching frequency (LSF) modulation schemes (conventional and improved), which can be implemented on MLIs. The LSF modulation schemes are implemented to three different MLI topologies to demonstrate their working and aimed at their application to reader invented MLI topologies. Highlighting the advantages of LSF over high-switching frequency (HSF) modulation schemes, the simulations are carried out using MATLAB®/Simulink along with hardware experiments. The practical application of MLIs to renewable energy sources and electric vehicles is also provided at the end of the book. Aimed at researchers, graduate students in Electric Power Engineering, Power Electronics, this book:

This book discusses the operation of power systems amid the 4th industrial revolution and the value of Industry 4.0 technologies to grid operators and end customers.

The concept of smart grids was introduced years ago, but their practical implementation into power grids was delayed as the information communication technology infrastructure was not ready. The transition to smart grids can be put into three dimensions: decentralization, decarbonization, and digitalization. Industry 4.0 technologies can enable more advanced features that can add value to all parties in smart grids and achieve a more holistic efficiency increase for the entire system via accomplishing business goals and realizing technical requirements.

Technical topics discussed in the book include:
