SUMMARY Electric energy storage systems are very important as one of the solutions to global warming. Step‐up/step‐down characteristics are required for electric energy storage systems. In addition, such systems must have high efficiency, low cost, and small scale. Therefore, the authors proposed a single‐phase step‐up/step‐down bidirectional converter with voltage‐fed and current‐fed hybrid‐type operation. The proposed converter consists of a two‐quadrant dc–dc converter and a single‐phase voltage‐fed converter. The circuit has several advantages such as low switching loss, use of very small capacitance, and so on. In this paper, the authors compare a comparison of the switching losses with a simple analysis.
