Abstract The DC-AC decoupling technique is usually adopted in conventional transformerless photovoltaic inverter to suppress the leakage current induced by the common-mode voltage variation. However, the leakage current still exists due to the existence of the parasitic parameters of the circuit. A novel transformerless inverter is proposed for photovoltaic grid-connected systems, which suppresses the leakage current by clamping the common-mode voltage to half of the input dc voltage. The proposed topology can also achieve the high efficiency due to the low conducting losses. Besides, a PWM control method is given out for the inverter according to the analysis of the operational principle. Furthermore, comparison among several topologies is presented to explore the performance of the proposed topology. Finally, a 2kW prototype is built to verify the effectiveness of the inverter.
