Distributed energy source based electricity generation is an essential factor for the economic growth and development of a country. The photovoltaic, fuel cell and battery based power generation offer a high voltage gain. The DC-DC CUK converter based on both buck and boost mode of operation is proposed for high gain dc link voltage. The hybrid CUK –KY Converter based multilevel inverter is designed and implemented. Here, the main advantages of hybrid boost mode operation of Cuk converter, step up configuration is used which will result in improve conversion voltage ratio and better damping of oscillations. The DC-DC converter voltage has regulated by the maximum power point tracking and PI control based method is used. The cascaded multilevel inverter in hybrid renewable energy production integrating with switched capacitor method is designed. The proposed converter is designed and implemented in MATLAB/SIMULINK environment.
