This paper deals with comparison of single boost converter and step-up DC-DC converters for PV module application. There is a growth in the area of PV generation connected to the grid. This paper proposes a high step-up DC-DC boost converter to boost the output voltage of PV cell. The output of high step up converter is converted into AC using a single phase inverter .A filter is introduced in the output to reduce the harmonics. High step up DC-DC converter for distributed generation employing
