Abstract

Solar Energy, the most abundant and widely used Renewable Energy is not only reliable, scalable but serves solution to global warming around the world. This energy is used for electricity generation using Photovoltaics (PV) converting Solar Energy into electricity. Photovoltaics (PV) play significant role for future Distributed and Renewable Energy Generation Systems (DG). This study is an effort to visualize simulation tool for solar cell array under rapidly changing solar radiation and temperature by inserting a test signal in the control input. The main objective is to find the parameters of the nonlinear I-V and P-V equation by locating the curve at three points: short circuit current, open circuit voltage and maximum power. Future Smart Grids can be optimized if computerized and designed using mathematical modeling and simulation system at STC. Case study relative to factors including weather and seasonal variations is tested through SIMULINK model. Predicted changes are configured for determination of MPP. The proposed model is based on variations by changing absorption of light with physical inspections for data corresponding to low and high temperatures. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.11591/telkomnika.v12i8.6071

Abstract

Photovoltaics (PV) are the most abundant, perennial, environment friendly and distributed source of energy all over the globe. In this paper, the method to increase PV extraction efficiency for 60W panel with improved DMPP (Distributed Maximum Power Point) even on changing temperature and irradiance have been mapped and discussed. In order to achieve this, the components and subsystems have been analyzed and validated. The validated models are used to maximize the power output using two different models of DC-DC Converters in MATLAB/SIMULINK environment. Closed loop Buck converter using state space nonlinear differential equations and direct component model are compared to reveal best results at Standard Test Conditions (STC). MPPT model developed can be used for obtaining maximum power output from PV even in partial presence of sun using Fuzzy Logic Controller. The Controller designed tracks highest power output for the buck converter. The model developed, using tested membership functions in FLC, can serve a platform for various real time applications using PV.
