Detailed Study of Solar Energy Conversion System using Boost Converter-a New MPPT Technique

摘要

Recent expansions in the emerging technologies have enlarged the consumption of electric power enormously which, conventionally, leads to the installation of power plants of huge capacity. So, to meet the electric power demand, the usage of renewable energy resources has become predominant in the present scenario. Solar photovoltaic energy conversion system that converts solar irradiance directly into electrical energy is a great opportunity among the available renewable energy resources as it is very abundant. In this paper, the key objective is to elucidate the detailed procedure of the maximum power-point tracking process for the solar panel with both stand-alone and grid-connected solar energy conversion system using a boost converter. The proposed system is simulated using MATLAB/Simulink, and comparative analysis shows the better performance of the proposed scheme.
