Systems for boundary controlled solar power conversion

A highly efficient method of series string solar energy power conversion comprising the steps of:

• establishing a plurality of solar energy sources, each providing a DC photovoltaic output;
• creating a plurality of high voltage highly varying DC photovoltaic outputs from said plurality of solar energy sources;
• individually establishing each of said high voltage, highly varying DC photovoltaic outputs as an individual DC photovoltaic input to a plurality of individual high efficiency switchmode photovoltaic DC-DC converters;
• individually high efficiency conversion duty cycle controlling operation of a plurality of switch elements within each of said individual high efficiency switchmode photovoltaic DC-DC converters;
• photovoltaic boundary condition controlling said plurality of switch elements within each of said individual high efficiency switchmode photovoltaic DC-DC converters;
• maximum photovoltaic power point controlling said plurality of switch elements within each of said individual high efficiency switchmode photovoltaic DC-DC converters slaved to said step of photovoltaic boundary condition controlling said plurality of switch elements;
• slavedly individual panel dedicated maximum photovoltaic power point DC-DC converting each of said high voltage, highly varying DC photovoltaic outputs;
• boundary condition DC-DC converting said high voltage, highly varying DC photovoltaic outputs;
• individually substantially power isomorphically converting each said high voltage, highly varying DC photovoltaic outputs into a plurality of converted DC photovoltaic outputs while accomplishing said step of individual dedicated maximum photovoltaic power point converting said DC photovoltaic input from each of said plurality of solar panels;
• serially connecting said plurality of converted DC photovoltaic outputs to create a combined higher voltage converted DC photovoltaic output from said plurality of solar panels;
• establishing said combined higher voltage converted DC photovoltaic output as a converted DC photovoltaic input to a high voltage, high power photovoltaic DC-AC inverter;
• and
• inverting said converted DC photovoltaic input into a high power inverted AC photovoltaic output.
