This work deals the comparison of perturbation and observation (P and O) as well as asymmetrical fuzzy logic controller (AFLC)-based soft computing approach as a maximum power point tracking (MPPT) means for photovoltaic (PV) network. The simulation of PV power system has been realized using both algorithms for different solar insolations. In this work, Cuk converter has been interfaced between PV array and load for smooth MPPT operations. The grid-tied PV system with unity power factor has estimated using MATLAB/SIMULINK approach. Simulation results explain the effectiveness and robustness of AFLC-based MPPT formulation.

This paper presents the design and implementation of a multiplier Single-Ended Primary-Inductor Converter (SEPIC) for a Power-Hardware-in-the-Loop (Power HIL) emulator of a PV system. The emulation system has been developed in a dSPACE 1104, allowing to exchange the data from a voltage variable power supply and the SEPIC converter in order to extract the maximum power from a solar panel. This methodology is intended for the evaluation of supervision strategies using a Power Hardware-in-the-Loop approach. The proposed project would offer laboratory studies closer to the collection of raw data in a fieldwork, thus facilitating the development of new technologies by obtaining faster and more comfortable results.

In this paper the photo voltaic (i.e. PV) system is used with the SEPIC converter (i.e. single ended primary inductor converter) and MPPT (maximum power point tracker) by using fuzzy logic. The fuzzy logic controller is used for gaining high efficiency by outputting crisp values to the SEPIC for converting dc to dc that is a buck/boost converter for converting dc voltage level. The inverter is used for transforming dc to ac and reducing harmonics for better ac output.

The increasing demand for electricity and depleting fossil fuels made the solar Photovoltaic (PV) systems to be a better alternative for the future power requirements. Nowadays solar energy has great importance. Because it is easily available resource for energy generation. The fact that the output of the PV system is dependent upon the solar irradiance and temperature. In order to get maximum power from the solar panels the Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) controllers can play an important role in photovoltaic systems, they have to operate at their maximum power point (MPP) despite the changes in the environment conditions. Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) which significantly increases the efficiency of the solar photovoltaic System. There are different MPPT control methods used for solar PV systems, Incremental conductance(IC), Perturb and observe(P&O), Constant Current method, Constant Voltage method, Fuzzy Control, and Neural Network Control.
