Abstract: Power sector faces great troubles in the generation of power when the energy sources are renewable resources like wind power, hydro turbines etc. These resources may not be available at a constant rate continuously. Wind power generation is high only when the velocity of the wind is high, but this may not happen all the time. So the input will not be stable, in such situations inorder to produce a stable, stepped up ac voltage with high reliability, high boost gain and efficiency, the use of single stage boost inverter with coupled inductor is suggested. 
Keywords: Single stage; coupled inductor; boost gain.
