Inverter and grid-connected power generation system

Abstract

An inverter and a grid-connected power generation system are provided to efficiently reduce the electric energy loss due to a DC boosted circuit, improve the efficiency of a PV system, and increase lifetime of the inverter. The inverter comprises: a DC boosted circuit; an inversion circuit connected to a output end of the DC boosted circuit; and a bypass circuit, of which an input end is connected to a positive electrode input end of the DC boosted circuit, and an output end is connected to a positive electrode output end of the DC boosted circuit. When a DC input voltage applied to the DC boosted circuit is higher than a voltage required by the inversion circuit, the bypass circuit is turned on, and the DC input voltage is supplied to the inversion circuit through the bypass circuit; and when the DC input voltage is lower than the voltage required by the inversion circuit, the bypass circuit is turned off, and the DC input voltage is amplified by the DC boosted circuit and then supplied to the inversion circuit.
