Integration of green energy technology in our electrical grid offers considerable payback for the environment and the sustainable development. Photovoltaic energy is extremely the amplest in the studied location. This manuscript deals with designing of a HCPV System for supplying the energy demand of a Carrefour Market at Gabes-Tunisia. The whole HCPV System (HCPV plant, DC-DC converters, batteries, bidirectional DC-DC converters and DC-AC inverters) was designed with appropriate and optimal system topology. This work was based on real load flow profile information with about 10.2 mega Wh/day daily energy required and faithful corresponding location (Latitude: 33.879, Longitude: 10.103) meteorological information (the annual global solar radiation is about 5.13 kWh/m²/d). Via a methodical approach and based on the relativity philosophy of day and night in PV system, the results show that only 803 HCPV multi-junctions solar cells modules are considered necessary for supplying the required energy of the OPE. Considering backup technique in HCPV System and linked to available components from manufacturers, string inverters topology with common DC bus was chosen.

The Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) algorithms are applied to obtain maximum efficiency under different atmospheric conditions in photovoltaic (PV) systems. Perturb&Observe (PO) and Incremental Conductance (INC) methods are the oldest algorithms used among MPPT methods. Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGA) are used especially in applications requiring high speed. FPGA in-the-loop feature is used to test algorithms designed in MATLAB/Simulink environment. In this study, PO and INC methods have been designed to work in FPGA environment. Both algorithms have been tested under different radiation conditions using FPGA-in-the-loop feature. The FPGA in-the-loop simulation result of PO and INC methods has been graphically shown. In this study, Altera DE2-115 development board was used to test PO and INC MPPT algorithms.

Renewable energy has too much attention over past few years specially solar energy. Photovoltaic is a technique in which solar energy is converted into electrical energy (DC). As we know conventional energy is limited so we are trying to improve the uses of renewable energy like solar energy, hydel energy, and tidal energy. A single cell of photovoltaic has still very low output so it is necessary to improve the performance and reduce the cost. The model of photovoltaic presented in this paper can be used to visualize its output characteristics which are I-V characteristics and P-V characteristics under different irradiation level and temperature. In this paper MPPT-Maximum power point tracking is a method in which changing the ratio between current and voltage delivered to get power by tracking one maximum power point from array input. Here the system developed by combining (PV) photovoltaic module and DC-DC boost converter. There is a detail discussion of DC-DC boost converter and...

The multilevel DC – DC boost converter with multiple DC sources is one of the most promising topology for photovoltaic system. In renewable energy sources like photovoltaic cells or array, the output voltage is of low level. In order to overcome this problem, the output voltage from the photovoltaic cell or array must be stepped up to a decent level and this can be done by using multilevel DC – DC boost converter with multiple DC sources which has been proposed in this paper. This DC – DC multilevel boost converter topology with multiple DC sources is a combination of simple boost converter and switched capacitor function to provide high voltage gain. The main advantage of this circuit is that it has multiple DC sources which means that different magnitudes of input voltages can be provided at individual sources. The proposed system is analyzed and simulated in MATLAB Simulink to validate the design.

This paper defines a 5-parameter based simulation model for a PV cell/array in order to allow estimate the characteristics of the cell with respect changes on environmental parameter of temperature and irradiance. Accurate PV module models are presented based on the Shockley diode equation. The general model was implemented on MATLAB and accepts irradiance and temperature as variable parameters and outputs the I-V characteristic and P-V characteristic as well. In many applications, such as solar power plants, building integrated photovoltaic or solar tents, the solar photovoltaic arrays might be illuminated non-uniformly. The cause of non-uniform illumination may be the shadow of clouds, the trees, booms, neighbour's houses, or the shadow of one solar array on the other, etc. This further leads to nonlinearities in characteristics. The shadow of solar PV array can cause many undesired effects. So study regarding the issue becomes very important to find and suggest methods and st...

This article suggests a maximum power point tracking (MPPT) method for a photovoltaic (PV) pumping system based on a nonlinear robust method combining the backstepping and the sliding mode techniques, which is referred to us as the BSMC controller. The system’s power circuit comprises of a solar panel, a step-up converter and a DC motor feeds a water pump. Two loops are in the control system: the first, provides the reference voltage, that is given by intelligent method based on artificial neural network (ANN), according with the maximum power point (MPP), to the BSMC in the second loop that regulates the PV array voltage in MPP and allows the converter to produce the required power to set the motor at the maximum speed. This is done through adjustment of the DC-DC boost converter duty ratio. The system is, on one side, able to predict the desired optimal voltage quickly by using the ANN, and also to prevent unnecessary calculation and research of the MPP. On the other side, the sli...

To substantially increase the efficiency of photovoltaic (PV) systems, it is important that the Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) system has an output close to 100%.This process is handled by MPPT algorithms such as Fractional Open-Circuit Voltage (FOCV), Perturb and Observe (P&O), Fractional Short-Circuit Current (FSCC), Incremental Conductance (INC), Fuzzy Logic Controller (FLC) and Neural Network (NN) controllers. The FSCC algorithm is simple to be implemented and uses only one current sensor. This method is based on the unique existence of the linear approximation between the Maximum Power Point (MPP) current and the short-circuit current in standard conditions. The speed of this MPPT optimization technic is fast, however this algorithm needs to short-circuit the PV panel each time in order to obtain the short circuit current. This process leads to energy losses and high oscillations. In order to improve the FSCC algorithm, we propose a method based on the direct detection of ...

The efficiency of photovoltaic (PV) systems depends directly on solar irradiation, so drastic variations in solar exposure will undoubtedly move its maximum power point (MPP). Furthermore, the presence of partial shading conditions (PSCs) generates local maximum power points (LMPPs) and one global maximum power point (GMPP) in the P-V characteristic curve. Therefore, a proper maximum power point tracking (MPPT) technique is crucial to increase PV system efficiency. There are classical, intelligent, optimal, and hybrid MPPT techniques; this paper presents a novel hybrid MPPT technique that combines Surface-Based Polynomial Fitting (SPF) and Perturbation and Observation (P&O) for solar PV generation under PSCs. The development of the experimental PV system has two stages: (i) Modeling the PV array with the DC-DC boost converter using a real-time and high-speed simulator (PLECS RT Box), (ii) and implementing the proposed GMPPT algorithm with the double-loop controller of the DC-DC boos...

This article proposes an improved maximum power point tracking (MPPT) method that features a simple design, and improved efficiency in fast-changing irradiance conditions. The method uses three consecutive measurements and compares the power difference between each two consecutive samples, furthermore the voltage variation between the last two successive samples is observed. According to the obtained result of these comparisons, the algorithm applies the suitable action either increasing or decreasing the voltage. This simple concept allows easy implementation and reduces the implementation cost and calculation burden. Second, the method has a prompt tracking response during fast changes in solar irradiance (e.g., due to passing clouds). The proposed method is validated through experimental tests using solar irradiance profiles according to the EN50530 standard and is compared to the classical Perturb and Observe method. The experimental results show that the proposed MPPT effectively identifies the change in solar irradiance, and maintains high tracking efficiency even in fast-changing conditions.

This paper presents a continuous maximum power point tracking algorithm to get better the effectiveness of the photovoltaic panel by capturing the maximum output power from it and ensure optimum power availability to the load. As the incident solar radiation and the temperature of the panel changes continuously, in such an unpredictable parameters changing situation, the decision of locating the maximum power point is not always tedious but also a wearisome job. Up till now several MPPT techniques have been developed in different ways to resolve the problem. In these the most commonly used techniques are Perturb & Observe method, Variable Inductor method, Incremental Conductance method, and Parasitic Capacitance method for a large Photovoltaic array. In Perturb and observe method, we can improve the efficiency of PV panel through variation in duty cycle using a special control mechanism. Also we present some simulation results of PV panel for a specific location with all parameters ...

The power provided by the PV array varies with solar radiation and temperature, since these parameters influence the electrical characteristics of solar panels. In Scientific researches, there are different methods to obtain these characteristics. In this paper, we present three methods. The first one is the simulation method by using Matlab/Simulink. The second one is the classical experimental method with a variable resistive load and the third one used a system acquisition (card NI PCI 6259 and LabView software). The obtained results in each case and under different meteorological conditions are presented. Keywords— Panels, Photovoltaic, Characteristics, Labview.

A maximum power point tracker is required to improve the power conversion efficiency of the solar photovoltaic generation system (PVGS) and ensure maximum power transfer from panel to the load through continually matching their internal resistances. In this study, an improved fixed step-size perturb and observe (P&O) maximum power point tracking (MPPT) has been proposed and analysed using MATLAB/Simulink. Duty cycle () was used to control the DC-DC boost converter's switching signal in the system configuration. Several key performance indicators to evaluate the suitability of the proposed algorithm were tested. It was found that the algorithm has excellent tracking efficiency above 99% and is capable of tracking the maximum power point (MPP) correctly at a lower time interval. The overall efficiency of the system is remarkably good, with a value higher than 97%. The proposed algorithm is, therefore, appropriate for photovoltaic (PV) applications.

This paper proposes an improved generalized method for evaluation of parameters, modeling, and simulation of photovoltaic modules. A new concept “Level of Improvement” has been proposed for evaluating unknown parameters of the nonlinear I-V equation of the single-diode model of PV module at any environmental condition, taking the manufacturer-specified data at Standard Test Conditions as inputs. The main contribution of the new concept is the improvement in the accuracy of values of evaluated parameters up to various levels and is based on mathematical equations of PV modules.
