Recent research has been focussed on renewable energy due to the rising need for electrical energy. Renewable energy has a low environmental impact compared to other energy sources. As a result, renewable energy sources (RESs) are the best option for generating electricity. Solar photovoltaic is one of the largest renewable power generators. Solar photovoltaic (PV) is connected to the load via power electronic converters. Most PV installations need a two-stage conversion process consisting of a boost converter to increase the load voltage and an AC-to-DC voltage source inverter to power the load. The Z-source inverter (ZSI) can confront the shortcomings of VSI and two-stage conversions. ZSI connects the PV system to the load and is used to increase the system's performance. This paper discusses the performance of various topologies of ZSI, such as traditional Z-source inverters (XZSIs); for integrating a PV source into a load, switched inductor Z-source inverters (SIZSIs) and transient Z-source inverters (TZSIs) are used. Also, artificial neural networks (ANNs), fuzzy logic controller (FLC), and adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS)-based MPPT techniques are discussed for obtaining maximum power from PV panels. Based on the maximum power, the shoot-through duty ratio has been adjusted. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
